Description

### What Happened?

There are a few issues mentioning how the list of networks shown in the network wingpanel isn't very reliable. When I want to "hard refresh" the list by turning off wireless and then back on via the network wingpanel, I can successfully turn it off but then I can't turn it back on via the wingpanel, I have to open up the settings app because the switch becomes inactive (greyed out)

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Make sure you're connected to a wireless network
2. Open the network indicator wingpanel
3. Click on the wireless switch to deactivate wireless connections (

4. The switch will be greyed out (inactive) and can't be clicked to be enabled again, you'll have to open up the network panel in the settings app to re-enable it

### Expected Behavior

The switch should remain active / toggleable.

### OS Version
