No. 1394 is firewire. You don't need 1394 / firewire to connect to a wireless connection.

However, considering I havn't seen firewire on a laptop for awhile now Im going to assume you are on a desktop..?!?

If this is the case, desktops don't natively connect to wireless connections (say the way a laptop would) so usually you have to hook up some sort of extra device. Any external devices I have seen were all USB, but if you were using an external device that connected to the computer via firewire - then yes you would need the firewire enabled. But again, in saying that, if firewire wasnt enabled and you plugged in your device it wouldn't work at all - in any way, shape or form.

Enabling firewire isn't hard either. Usually takes all of 3 minutes to do. You could just enable it anyway, incase you need to use it in future.
