Hi

 

I am using Technicolor TG582n router and it has a Free Wifi SSID enable which I would like to disable. I have tried to do it my self by logging into my router and checking the settings but I couldn't manage to figure it out. Before calling up my ISP I would like to see if we can disable it. If not my last resort would be to contact my ISP.

 

If I turn the router off the free wifi vanishes. So I am sure it is from me. 

 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thank you.

This sounds like one of those free spots that the ISP enables for other users. If you cant find the setting within the router config, login to the ISPs website and look around in the account settings. By chance are you using Comcast? I know they have a setting that you can configure, "Disable Xfinity WiFi Home Hotspot."

Took all of 10 seconds to find..

I wanted it to turn off my self rather than call them. But I sorted it out over the phone with my ISP. Thank you.

DONE

    • From the incredibly asinine idea of disposable AI datacenter satellites launching into low Earth orbit to building out yet another unnecessary mobile network, this con-man will do ANYTHING to scam investor suckers and get his stock prices up. This stinks of panic to me. Good.
    • The "Drop" feature will also be retired 👇 https://x.com/i/status/2067838711870439583 . And here I explain a workaround to restore Edge's sidebar app list 👇 https://x.com/i/status/2065149359314829650 .
    • And they say Brits are better educated than Americans. Seriously, mate, the American Empire built the Industrial Revolution -- specifically via the transport and exploitation of oil. Not the UK. Whereas, the British Empire was built for centuries on the oceanic "spice trade" -- which "coincidentally" overlapped all of the places where Opium was grown, aka the world's only surgical grade anesthetic for ten thousand years. The British Empire was the first seagoing UPS (and even local dealer) of the Old World. For what it's worth, all mining, processing, manufacturing, and distribution are becoming robotic in the near future. And it will then make sense for everything to be manufactured (by robots) on the continent where those products will be sold. So, while no humans will be involved, manufacturing will become local again one day. PS Trump is a lying, fascist, ignorant, crooked, idiot **** who fearmongers the same racist, misogynist cowardly ###### used by charlatans, Nazis, and con-men going back tens of thousands of years. It's never been true.
