" rel="nofollow - The WAN RADIO when set to disabled in bios, after booting into windows 10 the Asrock Wifi Connector Utility still pops up and you can still turn on the wifi.

so I presume it?�s still not being disabled?

Dear Raupenkotze,

Greetings, this is ASRock TSD.

The ASRock WiFi utility take over the WiFi control from BIOS after system is entering to OS.

Testing a system without WiFi driver and Utility installed, the WAN Radio option did work.

If disabled it, you will have difficult to Turn it ON by click the WiFi icon at the right corner of desktop.

Thanks!

All the best,

ASRock TSD

On X370 Taichi I use the UEFI disable option and no utility whatsoever.

However, when Win 10 is installed it automatically picks the WIFI/BT card and installs a driver. Then, the WIFI works, even when I don't want it to. Not exactly what I expect when I turn the WIFI off in UEFI.
