Seems I was wrong... having two ways for activating wlan: 1. soft-on/off via fn+F5 (wlan, wlan+blue, blue, none) 2. hardware switch (wlan+blue on/off)
while switching on and off often (too fast) via "soft"-off/on wlan doesn't come up again. Only a HW-Reset via hw-switch brings back functionality. Using soft-switch slowly doesn't affect wlan-disfunction Default: wlan + bluetooth is enabled at startup. syslog after reset: Nov 13 20:15:41 Oscar kernel: [ 3094.003741] iwlagn: Radio Frequency Kill Switch is On: Nov 13 20:15:41 Oscar kernel: [ 3094.003744] Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work.
