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

    • Limited Prime Day deal sees Amazon Echo Show 11 is at its lowest price yet by Ivan Jenic The Amazon Echo Show 11 is currently $149.99 on Amazon during Prime Day, down from $219.99. That's 32% off and $70 saved on Amazon's newest mid-size smart display (purchase link below). As its name suggests, the Echo Show 11 features a 11” Full-HD touchscreen, which is a decent upgrade over the Echo Show 8. It offers 60% more viewing area, which makes a genuine difference for recipes, calendars, video calls, or any other scenario where the smaller display can feel a bit cramped. The Show 11 is built around Alexa+, Amazon's more capable AI assistant that can handle natural conversation. You can make reservations, order groceries, and find content based on your preferences, instead of always having to give it precise commands. There’s also the Omnisense technology, which adds ambient awareness, allowing the device to trigger routines based on temperature, presence detection, or visual cues. Smart home control is built in without needing a separate hub, and the home screen doubles as a photo slideshow when not in use. Taking all of this into account, the Show 11 is a perfect smart addition to your kitchen counter or living room. At $149.99, this is a strong Prime Day buy for anyone already in the Amazon ecosystem or looking to build one out.

    • Dang that sucks. I just started using this feature instead of Pushbullet.
    • I use my devices until the very end. I used my old desktop computer for 16 years, my OnePlus 5T phone for 8 years and my LG Gram laptop for 7 years. Even though they are still working, there are no more security updates for most of them (Windows 7 ESU, Android 12 ROM and the LG Gram because I wanted an ARM based laptop).
