Hey,
I have a lenovo x230 with the wifi whitelist mod and have observed the following behaviour: When the "stock" intel 6205N card is installed, then the physical wifi-switch works as expected, i.e. when switched off, the device shows hard-block and does not permit turning on the wifi by software. When on the other hand the intel ax 200 is installed, then pushing the physical switch from on to off merely soft-blocks the wifi-card, and it can be unblocked by software, which results in the awkward situation of the physical switch being in "off" position while the wifi is being active. This is particularly annoying when restoring from sleep mode, when the wifi automatically reverts soft-block (this is a bahaviour that i generally like to have given the switch is turned on), but the switch is turned off. Is there a reason why this behaviour occurs and any way to make the physical switch work as such for the ax 200?
I'm running kernel 6.18.7 with network manager as network driver, although the issue has existed on previous kernels as well.
I'm glad to provide more information and thank anybody willing to help in advance.

Hi! I have very similar config, x230 with AX210 and wifi-switch works as expected, rfkill show soft and hard block on wlan

Interesting, thanks for the reply! So it seems it is because of my configurations. I also just noticed that I do in fact also have the AX210, not the AX200. Have you done any changes to the bluetooth functionality of the card?
Maybe somebody can suggest which configs to check and try to tweak. Here is the output of lspci -k :
