Hi,

  • In the Apple Menu, go to System Preferences...
  • Under Internet & Wireless, click Network.
  • If the lock on the lower left corner of the Network window is closed, click it so you can make changes to the network settings (do not click the lock if it is already "open"), then enter your system password when prompted.
  • From the options at right, select the connection you wish to disable:
    • Ethernet and from the Configure IPv4 drop-down menu, select Off
    • Wireless: and click Turn AirPort Off (at right).
Thanks n Regards

Hi itegypt ,

You can delete the unused network from macOS, once you need them, you can add them again.

1.Apple Icon->System Preferences...->Network

2.Select the network you want to remove, say, iPhone USB, then select '-' button.
