Sentry Crash Report:

Description Max Schettler 2016-01-15 15:05:58 UTC 
On my laptop I use a tool that shuts down the wifi adapter once an ethernet cable is plugged in.
In plasma-nm the wifi indicator is however still enabled. If I want to enable my wifi adapter after plugging in a cable again I need to click the box twice (first to "turn it off" and then to turn it on again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have plasma-nm with an online wifi adapter. In plasma-nm the top-left box should be enabled.
2. Use rfkill to block the wifi device

Actual Results:  
Plasma-nm still shows the wifi device to be active

Expected Results:  
Plasma-nm should show that wifi is blocked, indicated by the checkbox being disabled.
