I already feel better. All I had to do was go to a search engine and get instructions. Look for your specific router to do the same. I kept thinking about using an old wired router but now found that is not necessary. Avoid unnecessary health problems this way. FYI I do not use a cell phone.

Although wireless routers have advanced security settings, perhaps the most extreme way to keep your network secure is to shut off wireless access completely. Whether you're chasing a more secure network or looking for a way to turn an old wireless Linksys router into a simple wired Ethernet switch, you can shut off the wireless broadcast using the Linksys router management interface.

Step 1

Open a Web browser.
Step 2

Navigate to the IP address of your router. The default address for Linksys routers is 192.168.1.1. Enter your router admin name and password.

(both are "admin," usually)
Step 3

Click on "Wireless."
Step 4

Open the "Wireless Network Mode" drop-down menu and select "Disabled."
Step 5

Click "Save settings."
