1) If I reboot with the hardware switch ON, the wifi is OK

2) If I reboot with the hardware switch OFF, the wifi is NOT OK.

3) Command : rfkill list

0: dell-wifi: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: yes
1: dell-bluetooth: Bluetooth
 Soft blocked: yes
 Hard blocked: yes
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth
 Soft blocked: no
 Hard blocked: no

4) Command : sudo rfkill unblock all.

5) Turn on the hardware switch and it is OK.

BUT the wireless switch only controls the bluetooth (bios configuration).
Any idea ?
