Public bug reported: Airplane Mode is stuck on 'On' after I turn off + turn on wifi via the hardware switch on my laptop (Asus N53SV-S1827V), resulting in having no wifi. If I go to 'Network' and turn off Airplane Mode the switch does flip visually (though wifi doesn't start connecting), but when I reopen the Network window the switch depicts Airplane mode to be on again.
I tried 'sudo rfkill unblock all' but this doesn't solve it. I have to restart my laptop after which Airplane Mode is still on, but now I can effectively toggle the switch in the Network window. This results in a crash of the Network window, but wifi starts to connect again and when reopening the Network window it shows that Airplane Mode is off. The above behavior doesn't happen when I turn off wifi via the software switch, so it must be related to toggling the hardware switch.
