I can confirm that this also happens when toggling the radio killswitch on my x230 with Xenial:

Status in NetworkManager: New Status in OEM Priority Project: New Status in OEM Priority Project xenial series: New Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Description: Ubuntu Yakkety Yak (development branch) Release: 16.10 Packages: libnm-glib-vpn1:amd64 1.2.2-0ubuntu2 libnm-glib4:amd64 1.2.2-0ubuntu2 libnm-util2:amd64 1.2.2-0ubuntu2 libnm0:amd64 1.2.2-0ubuntu2 network-manager 1.2.2-0ubuntu2 Reproduce steps: 1. Install fwts by `sudo apt-get install fwts`. 2. Run the suspend & resume stress test. sudo fwts s3 --s3-multiple=30 --s3-min-delay=5 --s3-max-delay=5 --s3-delay-delta=5 Expected result: The WiFi still functioned. Actual result: The WiFi can not connect to any access point and we have to execute `sudo wpa_cli scan` manually to make it work again. P.S. Ubuntu 16.04 also has the same issue.
