Hi,
There is not programmatic way to turn off WIFI in Win8 style app.
But you can enable the user settings charm, and let customer to turn it on.

Were you just wanting to change settings, or obtain information (cost, etc.) on the connection? This is a good talk if you haven't seen it on that topic:
