How do I disable an access point?

Question

How do I disable an access point from a network?

Environment

  • Datto Access points

Answer

While access points do not have a dedicated disable feature, you can remove them from the network, or you can shut down the access point by removing its power.

To remove an access point from a network:

1. In the Navigation menu, click Access Points.

2. Find the access point you wish to disable, then click the ellipsis icon in the far righthand column. Choose either click Move to Network to move the access point to another network not broadcasting an SSID, or click Delete to delete the access point.
