Not really.
With a wired network, things are pretty much controlled about WHO is on it.
For WiFi, anyone in range can sniff and spoof a permitted connection.
My laptop rejects Peer connections.
My Access point (I don't use the routers WiFi), was set to block WiFi to WiFi connections. In my case, this is fine as all my 'server' or host type devices are wired. (call me paranoid. There are a dozen WiFi's seen by my TAB A in my residential house) If it CAN be wired, it is.
