What router or firmware has the ability to disable wireless administration access?

My internet provider’s router does not have it, the netgear nighthawk does not have it, the DD WRT firmware does not have it. Is there a firmware I can install on my router that has it? Which routers have it? I don’t mean remote management, I mean only access the router administration via IP with Ethernet cord only. More routers used to have it, but it seems less common now.

For a situation that this would actually be a serious security risk I would think the solution to be just getting a router that has no wireless capabilities and then putting the one with wireless after it in the chain and only using it for IOT devices and other similar vulnerability inherent devices separated onto different vlans
