Hello,

i have the hardware in object and i would like to disable only the router radio wifi.

I've tried to disable it in config→security router→ssid setting but looks like it will turn off the ap radio too.

Any hints?

    Hi @sirio,

    Welcome to the Zyxel Community!

    Regarding your question, please confirm if you would like to solely disable the Wi-Fi on the router while keeping it active on the access point. If yes, you should use SSID Tagging to specify which devices should broadcast the signal.

    1. Assign a tag to the AP: Navigate to Devices > Access points, select your NWA130BE, and add a specific tag (e.g., AP_ONLY) in the "Tags" field. Save the changes.
    2. Edit the SSID availability: Go to Configure > Access points > SSID settings. Ensure the Advanced Mode is toggled on at the top right of the page.
    3. Filter by tag: Locate the SSID you wish to broadcast. Under that SSID, filter and select the tag you created (AP_ONLY).
    4. Save: Click Save at the bottom of the page.

    Once applied, the USG LITE 60AX will stop broadcasting that SSID because it does not have the matching tag, while the NWA130BE will continue to operate normally.
