I am running a version of SID (AntiLinux) with iwlwifi firmware version
20210315-2.  In trying to set up the wifi, I discovered a problem with
rfkill and the physical on/off wifi switch on this laptop.  When the switch
is turned on, rfkill reports that the wifi is HARDblocked.  When the switch
is turned off, rfkill reports that it is SOFTblocked.  Have tried rfkill
unblock wifi and rfkill unblock all to no avail.

I wonder whether others with disconnects have any similar problems?
