./iwlwifi-8265-31.ucode
Could this be why it's "hard locked" on start up?
The really annoying thing is that everything was working just fine before I had to perform a clean install.
I've tried the obvious FN + F8 and FN + F10 key combinations. Not sure if there's another key combination on this laptop to turn wifi on/off.
My question is: how do I remove the "hard block" so I can fire up my wifi?

On my similar T440p, it is F8 alone, not Fn+F8. Please try that.

Thanks so much @chili555, that did the trick (I feel quite foolish now). I've rebooted quite a few times, and wifi works each time. I've also noticed that WiFi is now automatically disabled when you plug in an ethernet cable - not sure if this has always been the case, but found it very interesting. PS - not sure how to mark your answer as the answer.
