Disable WiFi or Change Pwd

Hi, I have my vc3.1 connected to my LAN via cable. Now I noticed that this does not disable the WiFi access. How can I disable WiFi (rfkill, I know but this generated tons of error logs) in RatOS elegantly? Cheers, BJ

sudo systemctl disable autohotspot.service ?

That still leaves the wifi chip enabled, afaik. I always disable wifi in config.txt (it's a certain overlay I forgot the name of)

Hi blacksmithforlife how do I use this command on ratos? I don't use linux so am really a noob. Is there a config file it goes in?

Why not just set it in config.txt? You can disable wifi there on a hardware level, instead of only disabled the service. Oh, wait. I already said that over a year ago.
