In Reply to: Will actually improve SQ - if there's a way to disable WiFi adapter on SBT. N/T posted by carcass93 on February 19, 2015 at 12:36:26:
May or may not be necessary to disable the wireless adapter. It depends on how the wireless software works, which also depends on the wireless hardware. It could be that the device does a one time scan for networks and then gives up for a while, in which case there wouldn't be (much) of a problem. Or it could be a real dumb wireless card that is constantly processing the signals floating in space, hoping to "phone home". I've seen both types of wireless cards and drivers on both Windows and Linux systems. If you can SSH into the box and look at the running processes it may be possible to see what is going on.
In general wireless sucks and should only be used if it is not practical or convenient to string wires. Especially keep the antennas away from your body and audio gear, etc...
