Public bug reported:

In the gnome-control-center, in the power section, there is a checkbox
that says:

Wi-Fi
Turn off Wi-Fi to save power

I have it checked, so after a few minutes without using my computer, the
wi-fi is disabled. I want to keep my wi-fi working, so I unchecked this
box, but it disables my wi-fi immediately.

So, it's obviously wrong to disable the wi-fi when I click that
checkbox. And I don't seem to have a way to keep my wi-fi enabled.
