Turn off WiFi Direct on 43NANO

[Nikola Jović]

OK this is REALLY frustrating and annoying - as I understand, people have been asking for this feature for ages now, and I can't imagine why it would be so difficult to program an on/off switch.

My neighbor is a really old dude, he has no idea what he's pressing on his phone. By some weird chance - and no, he's not doing this on purpose - he tries to establish a WiFi Direct connection to my TV like 850 times a day. As I don't use this feature, I'd like to be able to turn it off, because what if my other neighbors simply decided to annoy me? The TV is visible on like 5 floors in my building.

It's not an option to turn off WiFi altogether, as I have no intention of running a 15-meter cable through my house.

PLEASE for once just listen to what people have to say.

Also, this latest WebOS update has made things like 70% slower, I have an abnormal delay whatever I press. No kind of resetting did anything to fix this.

Go to settings.networks turn WiFi switch off that disables WiFi direct.

Your lucky can't even turn mine on after doing hard reset and update 5.60.15 can't get any WiFi just keeps searching webos49uh850v

Hi Dav2,

Thanks for your reply, however it's not an option to turn off WiFi entirely, as my router is 15m away. I COULD, in theory, use a cable, but I refuse to drill holes - that's what WiFi is for 😁
Sorry to hear about your problems 😢 The last update screwed things up pretty bad for many of us ...
