> PS: Yesterday I opened the case and disconnected WiFi antenna. Just in case.

While this couldn't hurt, it also won't stop the TV from being able to connect to wifi. I ran my desktop without an antenna attached for months. The speed noticeably improved when I attached an antenna but it was fine for browsing the web and downloading software updates without one.

Better to replace the wifi antenna with a dummy load.
