Turning off the wireless aspect of the westell 7500

Newbie

I have a westell 7500 modem/router. I have been using it for wireless connection for the past year. I have recently found out that the connection using  WEP and even the WPA security codes are not safe or rather those codes are easy to crack. I would now like to connect to my computer using only a hardline connection. My question is about the westell 7500 modem/router.  Is there a way to disable the wireless signal so it is not active while still using the hardline connection to the modem ? Or do I need to buy a different modem altogether without wireless capabilities? 

Thank you for your help.

I am not sure, but I believe so.

#1 In the router go to Wireless Setup.

#2 Check Disable Wireless and press Apply.
