Hello ultraviolentlight,

I am from Dell Social Media and Community.

Wireless Switch Allows you to enable or disable the wireless devices which are WWAN, Bluetooth and WLAN.
All options are enabled/disabled by default. (You may change the settings from Device manager)

As per the documentation, the sleep function is disabled by default. Hence the gray color.
