hp envy wifi switch not shown on rfkill

I have an HP envy 15 inch, newly installed with U16 it has RT3290 wifi chip.

My laptop has an wifi switch that I haven't been able to turn on. It always shows an orange light which indicates the wifi is off. I suspect this is what is causing me a whole host of wifi related issues.

I ran rfkill but it listed nothing. So how can I make the physical wifi switch work?

Edit for more info as per request:
