Disabling Transmissions on TVs and Streamers with Google OS

On TVs and streaming devices that use Google’s operating system, it is possible to disable both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth through the system settings. However, I’m not sure whether the TV/streamer remote control (which is often Bluetooth-based) will continue to work after turning off these functions.

If the remote control supports both Bluetooth and IR, it will continue to work in a limited way (for example, without voice search functionality). If you still want to connect the TV to a network, use a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi (since we are turning Wi-Fi off).

After each change, make sure to verify with a radiation meter that the transmissions have indeed stopped.

I’ve searched a bit and found videos (and even an image shared in the group) showing how to do this. There might be slight variations depending on your system version.

Disabling Bluetooth on TVs and Streamers (Google OS):

*1 Note: After disabling, some buttons on the remote might not work. It’s also possible that the device will still transmit when pressing buttons.

Always verify with a radiation meter.
