Like many others in this thread, I disconnect only the antennas.
I once lost a Cisco aironet wireless access point during a thunderstorm because the wired Ethernet cable feeding it acted as antenna for a natural EMP.
I guess your case is similar.
Proper bonding should help reduce the risk, according to the sages of this group :)
