I need an option to block de WIFI or a bypass to block it. The most easy way should be that the button to turn it on will be blocked. Is there any option, without taking out the internal antenne? Please let me know I would be very thankfull for the help!

To the best of my knowledge you can’t block WiFi as in making it where the setting to access WiFi is not accessible. Other than switching the WiFi button to off and forgetting known WiFi so someone would have to log into a WiFi network they are trying to access. Taking out the internal antenna would be an odd and extreme choice….
Curious as to the reason you want to block WiFi access. If it is a case where you don’t want a user to be able to use WiFi while they have the iPad….if it’s at home you could check and see what options your router has. For example, my router has controls where I can block specific devices from having access to the WiFi…either altogether until I allow it or by setting a schedule that would block the device from connecting during certain hours. Of course that wouldn’t be helpful in other locations if the iPad has had previous access to a network or if the user goes in and joins a network wherever they are.

Well first I want to thank you for your reaction. The option for taking out the antenna is a extreme one but already one I have doubted.
The situation is that, business wise, I need the IPad to be used on a location for an election. The users on locations aren’t really known of the security issues so instead of telling that it is forbidden I want to block the option. Till now it is hard to find a solution for it, but I’m considering an option to create an app or script for it. To be honest I prefer a more simple solution.
