Same here. I once pushed the kill switch and cannot connect via wireless at all anymore, not even after a reboot. I would say that this bug deserves more than medium status, because it keeps on blocking wireless network connection.

output /var/log/messages when I switch the Radio Frequency Kill Switch on (i.e. radio connection and blue lamp go off)
