Insprion 7352 Win 10 - Wifi disabled (and can't enable)

We just purchased an Inspiron 7352 with Windows 10 pre-installed. We've seen a problem with the WiFi a couple times.

The computer is connected to another WiFi network away from home, and everything's fine. Close the computer lid, come home, and open it up, and it won't connect to the WiFi at home.

The network adapter properties show that the WiFi adapter is disabled. So, right-click and enable it. It says it's enabling the adapter... and then the icon still says it's disabled, and it still won't connect to anything.

Rebooting the computer solves the problem.

It's acting kind of like a computer with a physical wifi on/off switch turned off. But there's not a switch on this computer. (Fn-PrtScr toggles Airplane Mode on & off, but that doesn't seem to affect this problem.)

Any advice? It would be nice to avoid the problem in the first place; failing that, it would be good to be able to enable the adapter without rebooting the computer.
