Not certain exactly what you mean by using WPA2 and disabling wireless as WPA2 encrypts the wireless medium (cable medium doesn't require encryption).
People should avoid using WEP and WPA because those give a false sense of security. On my own network, I had both WPA2 AND WPA enabled, and somehow someone was able to both hack the router and crack the password. After that, I forced everyone in the house to switch to WPA2.
