But wait, you said that WiFi is working? I cannot enable WiFi because
WiFi enable checkbox is not available after some reboots. So I man not
sure if this is same bug.
Either way, I've want to share some experiment:
First, I had to run this (to disable kill swich?):
rfkill unblock 0:
rfkill list
0: asus-wlan: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
*** FIRST REBOOT ***
Now I've rebooted. I can see WiFi switch in network manage KDE Plasma
applet (or whatever it is called). It's not on though as I am using
ethernet cable.
Attached syslog-0-reboot-with-wifi-enabled with some interesting lines:

*** SECOND REBOOT ***
Now rebooted again. WiFi still visible in network manager applet.
Attached syslog-1-reboot-with-wifi-enabled-again . I see same
interesting lines as before, looks the same as first reboot:

** THIR REBOOT **
Attaching syslog-2-reboot-with-wifi-disabled. *I cannot enable* WiFi
through network manager applet after third reboot. Checkbox is missing.
Some lines:

These systemd Load/Save RF Kill Swich lines ar now much earlier in log.
Aug 4 12:57:15 vinco kernel: [ 16.219830] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0:

This RF_KILL line is now much earlier in log too.
Aug 4 12:57:17 vinco NetworkManager[2953]: <info> [1470304637.9248]
rfkill0: found WiFi radio killswitch (at /sys/devices/platform/asus-nb-
wmi/rfkill/rfkill0) (platform driver asus-nb-wmi)
There is only one "found WiFi radion killswich" line as opposed to
previous two logs!
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.2/0000:04:00.0/ieee80211/phy0/rfkill3
is missing.
These last lines looks the same, thought "RF_KILL" and Load/Save RF KILL
when up to the beginning of the log:
