wireless - How can I turn off wifi on thinkpad T460s? - Ask Ubuntu


i have t460s has no physical switch turning off wifi, eg save battery or when on airplanes. f8 key seems have relevant icon, seems have no effect. other f keys work, such changing brightness or volume. don't have windows installed on machine, ubuntu mate 16.04. how can turn off wifi?

in terminal run

nmcli radio wifi off 

when want turn on:

nmcli radio wifi on 

as mentioned in comment livewirebt (thanks!) can use commands in custom keyboard shortcuts:

go menu set custom keyboard shortcuts

and add new 1 each nmcli command. click says "disabled" , press key combination want use (for example, super+alt+w)
