Hm. This looks roughly like what I'm experiencing where if I uncheck
wifi in gnome-shell or XFCE4 (haven't tried in Unity yet) it is
permanently killed.  XFCE4's network tool reports that the rf kill
switch has been used (not so, I just used the network gui).

Oddly, if I actually toggle the real physical rf kill switch, while
bluetooth goes on and off, wifi stays dead.

I have to reboot to recover.

Yes, I know not precisely the same machine/pattern, but still seems
related so just gonna watch this one to see what happens.

Right now, I just avoid disabling wireless as much as possible.

Oh. And was fine in Natty.

Title:
  network-manager doesn't reconnect to wireless networks after rfkill
  soft blocks removed

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Testing Oneiric Alpha 3 on cert machines.  On this machine, if I use
  the wireless hotkey combo to turn wireless off once, I am able to turn
  wireless back on again.  However, on the second and subsequent
  attempts to turn wireless off and on using the hot key combo, the
  wireless remains disabled.  The only recovery is to reboot the
  machine.

  This machine does NOT have a physical slider, only the hotkey.
