Wireless internet down

[CptCharis]

Good day to all of you guys !!!
Yesterday my laptop suffer from a bad superblock. (As I discovered later).

I fix my problem with this command:

(initramfs) fsck /dev/sdaX -y

And everything returned back to normal.
Everything except my wi fi. As you can see in the photo the output of :

inxi -Fxz

Shows that my wireless network is down.

I tried to turn it up with:

sudo ifconfig wlpls0 up

But this message was returned:
SIOCSIFFLAGS: operation not possible due to RF-kill.
Then I tried

Sudo refill list all

Which returned that my hard is blocked.
I tried to unblock with this command:

Sudo rfkill unblock all

Without results.
Any help.

Forget it guys , hardware switch was off.

Sorry for disturbing.
It was actually a good lesson.

I love the guy, he has been with us for 10 months and taught himself so much

Nice troubleshooting Capta.

For accuracy

Then I tried

Sudo refill list all

Which returned that my hard is blocked.

That's

sudo rfkill list all

Cheers all

Good morning Chris @wizardfromoz
Yeap, you are correct . Refill is something else
