How to Disconnect a Client's D-Link Router
D-Link wireless routers let computers in your home or small office connect to the Internet and share files over a "local area network," or LAN. You might want to disconnect a D-Link router before sending it away for repair or shipping it in the mail. Breaking a router down and disconnecting it from its power and Ethernet cables takes less than two minutes. The router's wireless network switches off when you pull the power cord.
