That's the point; I think BookCat doesn't know how to do this. He/She already stated once that a tech guy has to be called to enable Wi-Fi.
Still, I'd just have it enabled, protected by a WPA2 key. Then you can connect to it whenever you need or want to. It doesn't do anything to the network, and as long as you don't tell anyone the key (and not make it 1234), no-one else can use it.
As I said, I only use Wi-Fi for my phone and tablet, and (occasionally) for my notebook. It's only for browsing though. If I do something serious on the network, it's just too slow. All stationary computers (desktop, media center) are wired. If I need the notebook on the network for serious stuff, I connect it by cable as well.
