[Help] Jio Fiber Router WLAN disable issue.

Home Tech Networking & Telecom

Hey Guys,

Need some help in configuring my JioFiber Router. I had it configured with me main ASUS RT-AC86U via Ethernet cable. WLAN was disabled on Jio Router and was using ASUS for wireless connectivity. But it seems in November, Jio did some firmware upgrade and now i can’t disable WLAN as the toggle option of ‘Broadcast SSID’ is missing entirely in the access point page in the JioUI. Now because of this there is a conflict between both routers.

Is there anyway to switch off WLAN on Jio or downgrade the firmware to previous version? Jio Router model no. is JCOW411 & current Firmware Version is - ARCNTF1_JCOW411_R3.7.

Any help would be appreciated, gents.

You can do it from myjio app if you are not able to find the settings in router ui.

Yes, earlier it was possible from there also. But now they keep toggling back ON on their own after refreshing the page.

I am also having the same issue. A lot of settings are now missing from the Jio Centrum Gateway UI, including NAT, uPNP, AP settings, port forwarding, reboot etc.

Thing like this is why I ditched Jio fiber just after the first 3 months. Horror show.

My solution was more physical. I unsoldered the wireless antenna from the PCB. It works perfect as intended but yeah it’s complete BS on the part of Jio for taking away most of the essential settings from the Router configuration.
