You connect to the management page on your router, and turn it off.

If you want it to be disabled/not on, for anyone. Yopu will have to go into the configuration on the router/modem and turn off WiFi.
If you want to just disable it for a specific PC, then go to: Start/Control Panel/Network and Internet/Network and Sharing/Change Adapter Settings/Right click on Wireless Network Connection/Disable
Then when you want to turn it back on it's the same thing only at the end select Enable

Right click the icon and select View Available Wireless Networks.
Click the name of your wireless network and then click the Disconnect button.
