Cameras, various sensors (water leak in particular), thermostat, home automation (turn on/off lights), and alarm systems may all use wifi when you are away.
I can access a home computer remotely to take care of things that are difficult to do on a tablet.
If you have none of these, or don't care about them while you are gone, then some ISPs may allow you to pause service and save some money.
