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.
Wi Fi might be a separate add on to the internet connection. I know when I switched to cable internet it didn't come with Wi-Fi and I had to have someone from my provider come out with the Wi-Fi add on so that I could connect my Kindle to the net via its Wi-Fi.
