strange thing.... I figured I would turn it off and then work with your directions. Unfortunately it triggers the hard block. I was figuring I was going to have to reboot but after pressing the button it turned back on:)

Sounds like your device might be getting stuck off.  I had a netbook with this problem, the solution was:

After pressing the wifi button and then turning it back on run:

rkfill list

and see if it tells you that anything is soft or hard blocked.

If you see something that is soft blocked, just run:

rkfill unblock 0

Where 0 is the number of the device.  It's probably 0 but you might have more than one.

I have a compaq cq57 and am very upset with the wifi button. If I
accidently turn it off it won't turn back on unless I restart the stupid
thing. Is there a way to make it so it is always on?
