Under normal circumstances my WLAN at home is switches off. All my media files are on an external hdd connected via usb to the WD TV Live. Each time I switch my WLAN on the TV Live connects automatically to the WLAN. How can I avoid this?
Just remove the password for your wireless connection and the WD TV wont connect.

Seems to be a good idea but the problem is in that case I have to type it in again if I want a connection. It’s a long number and I don’t have it in my brain. (Hope you understand my bloody english–I tried to do my best)
I assume that you have an old Live or Live plus, if so then just remove the WiFi adaptor or ethernet cable.
Can’t check ATM, isn’t there a setting “connect to share automatically” that can be turned off?
@ richUK: my box is a new model with integrated WiFi so doesn’t work
@ Techflaws: I’m from Germany and not really familiar with your abbreviations, what is ATM? In my box in the main menu I can choose WiFi. There I put in the pin and the box connects to WiFi.
Jomei; then you’re in the wrong forum.  This forum is for the 2009-model WDTV Live HD.  You have the WDTV Live Streaming Media Player.
ATM = At the moment.Â
Now, to get to the crux here, why do you NOT want it to connect automatically?

I’m not really interesting in WiFi. I use it only time by time for YouTube or radio. All the other services are typical for the US but not for Germany. I have no need for extra movie information. WiFi slows down my box and that I want to avoid.
Is it possible to move over this post to right forum or must I open a new topic there?
I’ve sent the moderators a request to relocate it…
