Hi, sorry for not being clear as I could. Please refer to
https://www.howtogeek.com/196655/how-to-configure-the-grub2-boot-
loaders-settings/ , detailed steps are:

1. To blacklist wmi module:

     $ gksu gedit /etc/default/grub

   Then edit the line beginning with "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=" as:

     GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash module_blacklist=wmi
log_buf_len=32M"

   I also added "log_buf_len=32M" here to extend kernel log buffer size
so that everything since boot will be kept. Save changes, quit gedit,
and then run update-grub to re-generate grub.conf based on these
changes:

     $ sudo update-grub

   After rebooted, open a terminal and save dmesg:

     $ dmesg -w | sudo tee dmesg.$(uname -r).blacklist-wmi

   This will run forever until interrupted (Ctrl-C). Now check if your
WiFi is back, interrupt previous dmesg command and paste the saved dmesg
log.


2. To enable WMI debug messages:

     $ gksu gedit /etc/default/grub

   Then edit the line beginning with "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=" as:

     GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash wmi.debug_event=1
wmi.debug_dump_wdg=1 log_buf_len=32M"

   Save changes, quit gedit, and then run update-grub to re-generate
grub.conf based on these changes:

     $ sudo update-grub

   After rebooted, open a terminal and save dmesg:

     $ dmesg -w | sudo tee dmesg.$(uname -r).wmi-debug

   This will run forever until interrupted (Ctrl-C). Since this only
enables WMI debug messages, your WiFi should still be hard blocked, just
go ahead to interrupt previous dmesg command and paste the saved dmesg
log.
