I have done this as I cannot connect to the internet unless the ethernet cable is pulled into my computer.

However the PC is connected by ethernet to router as the OP doesn't want the PC to use the WiFi connection, preferring wired. Was asking if he enables the routers WiFi again, if they can turn of the PCs WiFi, thereby ensuring it will still be utilising the wired connection.
That is precisely what I am asking Stephen.

The PC will not connect to the router via wifi.
Thank you for that input but I use a Mac, not a PC.
