Laptop wifi issue

[gauravbellani]

Hello. My roommate has given me an open challenge to try to disable his laptops wifi. This is because he keeps watching music videos on YouTube late at night and doesn't let me study. When I asked him to stop he said 'try to make me' . Please tell me how I can disable his laptops wifi in such a way that he can't fix it.

The only sure way is to flip it over, open up the back, and remove the wireless card. Can always be easily put back in.

Lol. I need to do something quick when he's not around 😛 won't have much time for that. Is there anything I can do with the network drivers ?

Without being too invasive just disable the wireless network adapter in the network and sharing menu. select change adapter settings, right click on it and check disable

Yeah you could do that but why doesn't he get headphones? Problem solved. Or disable the driver completely through device manager.

He has headphones, doesn't use them just to piss me off

Just close his laptop's cover to piss him off instead
