hi,

I just set up an access point via LAN, so I disabled the router's wifi, but I noticed in the network scanner that it is always active in hidden mode. Is this behavior normal in dd-wrt? thanks

even though it is disabled, it always transmits

The option "SSID Broadcast" does not deactivate the WLAN but is the switch for visible/invisible

If you want to deactivate the radio you have to set the "Network Mode" to disabled
