Default Disable wireless management interface?

Read through the first three pages and searched. Couldn't locate anything.

I would like to disable wireless access to the management interface as I did with my Linksys WRT-54G. Is that possible?

Go to advance wireless settings in the router interface

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I'm not seeing an option to disable access to the management interface via wireless. Note: not trying to disable wireless but rather the ability to alter router settings.

I dont think it's possible to do that right now.
The guest wireless network cant go into the config pages.

Bummer. Simple way to keep someone from brut forcing from the curb outside. Not that I expect that to happen. But one less thing...

Thought all routers had it by now. Maybe later. Thanks again.
