A couple of days ago, my wifi suddenly shut off. I tried logging
out and back in. Then, I tried rebooting. No joy.

My wi-fi is still shut off.
Any ideas on how to recover? It's a fairly important (to me) box,
and I don't like having it in the cellar so that I can plug it
in directly to the router.
What does rfkill list say?

I tried to bring it up with nmcli:

What happens if you boot up a live linux off say USB?
If this is a laptop, then it might have some kind of kb switch, but the data you've shown look like that is ON.
If you know the name of your wifi, you can
ifconfig wlan0 up
...where wlan0 should be whatever is the correct name.
And, I have had situations in which the easiest way for me to get my network working again was to boot up a Windows on the same hardware and use its troubleshooter.

No sooner did I post this than I discovered that Dell, in their===
infinite wisdom, decided to put a switch on the side that can
turn off the wifi.
