Sometimes the Lenovo wifi card gets into a state where the rfkill
cannot be used to unblock the card. If this is the case, you need to
reset the BIOS to "Setup Default" State. At least on S10-3t it fixed
the wifi detection problem.

Check this thread:

"Just tried to clear the BIOS from the GUI:
This worked for me:
At startup - press F2 to go into the BIOS
When in the BIOS:
press F9 to apply the setup defaults
press F10 to save and exit"

Hope that this can help.
