The manual indicates you can.

What version router do you have? Check under the router - on a small label - possibly v1, v2 ,v3 or v4.

I didn't mean you...I meant me! Just downloaded from the Belkin site...

Hummmm it says the wireless LAN light can have the status of off but it doesn't bloody tell you how to switch it off...oh well - just make sure it's secure - you've done that haven't you?

Re: Connect 2nd home pc to internet

I think the light just indicates whether it's working or broken, I've got a v4 which doesn't support disabling of wireless but has the light anyway.

Re: Connect 2nd home pc to internet

If you ever notice that WLAN light flashing then it means someone is using your connection, phone the police.

Then why indicate in the manual that it can be switched off?
