I have the same board, and unless that option was added in the 3.10 UEFI that I have not installed, there is no option to disable the wireless LAN. You can disable the Intel 3168 wireless LAN controller in Device Manager. |

I asked this question of support and found the answer to be no. You can turn the radio off in the BIOS. Support suggested I could physically remove (unplug) the card right in front of the antennae connections after removing the cover. This seemed like too much and would probably void the warranty even though support suggested it. Enjoy, John.

7PCGamer, here is the response I got from ASRock America Support Team:
Plus images: I did not ask about warranty because I did not plan to modify my board. I also think Bluetooth is on this Intel circuit board. Enjoy, John. |

The WiFi module is mounted in a special M.2 slot, just below the vertical VRM heatsink, to the right of the word Ryzen on the IO panel internal cover, and just above the PCIE1 x1 slot. The M.2 slot has "M.2 WIFI" printed on it. It is not located underneath any heat sink or cover. You can easily see it in any of the top down pictures on this board's information page: http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/X370%20Killer%20SLIac/index.asp One small screw holds in place. This module is both the WiFi and Bluetooth module. This board is sold with (/ac version) and without the WiFi module, so it is easily added or removed from the board. |
