remember wifi devices have an attenna, instead of removing the chip, soldering resistors to the antenna (or replacing it w/resistors) will drain it of power (more or less). no attenna power, no signal to connect; no signal to connect, no wifi.
though honestly tv wifi does a pretty good job at dropping signals on it's own. most tv's have a wifi OFF capability, always assumed that ... worked?
some samsung tvs would autoconnect to open wifi networks, and that couldnt be disabled.
Wow that is crazy.
