I can't seem to turn off the Wireless Network on a Cisco EPC3925 modem/router. I can set Wireless to disabled in the "Wireless" tab of the web interface, but the wireless network remains.
There's also an option to disable it from the Setup/Quick Setup tab, but if I click the disable button there and then "Save settings", nothing seems to have changed and the form has reset itself to the initial values.

According to the manual on page 39, going into the Wireless Basic Settings you can disable/enable wireless from there. Maybe turning the wireless configuration to "Manual" would help with the problem too.

1I already put the Wireless Configuration to Manual—makes no difference. And like I said, disabling it in the Wireless tab doesn't actually disable it. May 11, 2013 at 17:41
It turned out only the internet service provider (Ziggo) was able to turn off the wireless for me remotely.
I guess they put custom firmware on their modem routers to prevent customers from being… difficult? I imagine they have more problems with people complaining about a lack of wifi, than people wanting it gone.
