* An ongoing debate between Ed Vance and All rages on ...

 EV> As I asked above, Can the Wi-Fi part of a Broadband Router be turned
 EV> OFF by me?   Thanks for reading.

Yes. Disabling the SSID would leave WiFi on but hidden unless you know the 
router name. I would forget the SSID and just switch WiFi off altogether!

Connect a hardline, if not already, to router and surf to it (usually 
http://192.168.1.1), enter ID & PW (mine 1st time was admin, no PW) then find 
the Wireless section and just turn it off. :) Remember to save changes and I 
always backup the router config to my HD.
