    I've been trying to figure out how to keep the WAN to stay off after shutting down or restart. I've tried fn+F5, disabling it from the network connections and device manager. It always decides to turn back on after I power i back on. Anyone have any idea how I can get it stay down? I'm not planning on using it for awhile. Came with the config plus I might end up using it one day, but not now, espcially with a $80/month price tag. Thanks in advance for any help.

    How about diabling it in device manager?

    Tried that, mentioned in my first post, lol. I figured it out, you have to disable it in the BIOS setup for it to stay down. Kinda wierd, hopefully they'll have an update where if you turn it off in the OS, it'll remember that.
