Question about ASUS WL Router GT-AXE16000 AiMesh
Is it possible to turn off the wifi completely on the ASUS GT-AXE16000? It doesn't have a Wifi ON/OFF button. I am only interested in the 10 Gbit WAN/LAN connections via cable. Thanks.
Yes wi-fi can be switched off per frequency band
Hi xx,
The WiFi of the AXE16000 cannot be switched off completely, you could perhaps
leave the individual frequency bands unconfigured ... maybe.
One of the reasons the device is so expensive is that it supports very fast WiFi
with the 802.11ax protocol (6GHz band). If you do not want to use the WiFi
a WLAN router is the wrong type of device for you.
Depending on your needs, you should consider a switch with 10GBit/s ports.
consider. For simple connectivity purposes, an unmanaged switch is
is sufficient. For the connection of 16 or more devices, there are only managed switches on the market.

These are naturally more expensive, but offer many more possibilities (virtual LAN, link aggregation, routing rules, etc.).

I myself have a NetGearXSM4316PA. It has 16 10GBit/s ports,
but costs a little over 1,600Fr. I'm very happy with it.

Oops, I meant the 4 stripes...
Correct: no WiFi on/off button.
With the GUI you should be able to disable all 3 bands if you want.
