Does anyone know how I can turn off the internal video bridge on the HS17?

All 6 of my clients are all wired.... there is no need for me to have that turned on... I think it might be messing up my WiFi in my house because when I pull the power on the HS17 my WiFi internet is better.

The WiFi name the HS17 has is "DIRECTV_WVB_2BFD****" (* are more numbers and letters)

They could be operating on the same Wi-Fi channel, try changing the channel on your home Wi-Fi network

There is NO way to disable the internal WVB -suggest you look at your router and as suggested change the WFI CHannel if possible
 
Do you not have to worry about that 4ft rule and you can place them next to each other without interference?
They are supposed to be kept apart, I'm not sure of the exact requirements. My statement was based on them being properly installed.
