I am talking about a physical switch or key on the laptop. That shouldn't be possible to automatically revert. Tap the wifi key on the laptop and then the toggle switch in gnome-shell should work. Even if it doesn't, when 'rfkill' shows 'HARD' = 'blocked' then that's a hardware problem and we can't solve it in gnome-shell. Although it *might* be a kernel bug after that. More likely you just need to press the wifi key on your keyboard and then also turn it on inside gnome-shell.
