Well, like you guys I used to be able to go into the control center and turn on the wifi, but that stopped working after a while.

However, I've found a permanent, albeit slightly inconvenient fix for it.

You have to turn off Hibernation in your Power Settings.

Just click your battery icon in the system tray and go into each and every power option and make sure that Hibernation is not an option on ANY of the power plans. Just make it sleep where it would normally hibernate.

I've not had this issue since.
