On Windows the key was intended to control both wireless and Bluetooth but on Ubuntu the switch key when pressed only enables/disables Bluetooth and the wireless network adapter is absent under network settings too.

For me, there was a BIOS setting for the wireless switch. You could choose between "None", "Wifi", "BT", "Wifi & BT". Change it to "Wifi"
