Can not reproduce this behaviour, btw. If I disable WLAN in nm-applet, the wifi device is softblocked, but turning it on again in nm-applet correctly enables it again. Please attach a debug log of NetworkManager [1] when your are disabling and (re)enabling the device using nm-applet. Is this behaviour reproducible with nmcli nm wifi off nmcli nm wifi off [1] https://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/Debugging -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
