I just add that the status light of the hardware key and the status shown by the network indicator are tightly coupled (as they should be). For example, when I turn wifi off using the indicator, the LED light on the HW button switches its colour from white (signalling the ON status) to the orange one (OFF status). And vice versa.

I am presently using an ethernet cable network so I turn the wireless network off. After each new start or reboot of the machine the wifi radio gets always on and I always have to switch it off manually. The notebook uses an Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6235 (rev 24) wireless adapter (I hope this is a hardware version, not a driver one). I think that the On status by default is not good for several reasons: - energy consumption is higher - security may be affected - more electromagnetic radiation in environment ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: linux-firmware 1.149 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-16.19-generic 4.2.3 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-16-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: MATE Date: Fri Oct 16 16:16:11 2015 Dependencies: InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-10-04 (11 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-MATE 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Alpha amd64 (20151003) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: linux-firmware UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1506888/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
