When entered ifconfig wlan0 up it returns siocsifflags not possible due to rfkill

The normal fix with rfkill it says command not found.

Airplane mode in system settings reverts to on after I leave the menu and it refuses to let me switch on the wireless interface in that menu regardless of the airplane mode status.

I've also tried (http://forums.kali.org/showthread.ph...-to-RF-kill%94) with no luck.

Any help with this would be appreciated.
