Model: Archer C1200  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 3.3

When I turn off my C1200, the ethernet network disconnects. Chain of equipment is from a Comcast cable wall plug to an Arris Surfboard SB6183 to the C1200 to an ethernet hub. I'd like to be able to turn off the wifi at times, but still have ethernet active. Thanks.

@poulsboguy The easiest way would be to look behind the router, and to hold the Wi-Fi on/off button for two seconds. When you want to turn the Wi-FI back on, hold the same button for two seconds, and the Wi-Fi will turn back on.

 

Alternatively, you can log into the router with a wired computer, go to Basic > Wireless. Uncheck both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz, hit save. Wi-Fi will now be disabled, and you would simply check them again and save to have Wi-FI.
