Trying to turn off Wifi for LAN use only

I want to turn off my wifi signal from my router so that Im only using the cable. Ive followed the instructions to do so and typed in the number in the seach bar and now it's asking me to enter my username and password before I can go ay further.  But WHAT username and password?  My SKY details arent being accepted, and computer admin details arent being accepted.  What are they asking for? Have attached an image.pass.jpg

Re: Trying to turn off Wifi for LAN use only

You are trying to access the Web Administration pages of your router (which is correct) but it has it's own credentials (username and password).

 

There are three different types of hub and they have different credentials.

Read the following link to determine what to use

 

Logging into Router 

 

p.s. I suggest you change the password for the router to help improve security (make sure you remember it)

Ok thanks, I managed to login.  I disabled wifi (wifi access point, I think that was the correct option?) but the wifi light is still on the router.  Does that mean the wifi is still producing a signal? Shouldnt it be off now?
