I have a Raspberry Pi 3. 32 GB edition. The wireless feature was working fine...now it is not. It appears to be connected to the wireless network at work, but typing in a URL results in no result. Also, how do I turn off the wireless feature? Eventually, I will not need wireless capability.

There are several options on disabling WiFi on the Pi 3 [here](http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/43720/disable-wifi-wlan0-on-pi-3). In order to diagnose your problem you're going to have to edit some more information into your question (*don't use comments*) - can you ping other devices on your network, can you ping external websites, can you ping the [DNS servers listed in /etc/resolv.conf](http://superuser.com/a/617797)? – goobering Feb 16 '17 at 14:37

1Please edit your question and include the output of ifconfig, also include the contents of /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf. – Steve Robillard Feb 16 '17 at 19:32

Did you edit any static IP configurations that might be wrong and could be the problem?
To disable Wi-Fi you can edit the file /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf by adding the following lines:
blacklist brcmfmac
blacklist brcmutil
Hope this helps.
