I find that annoying, because my icon disappears when I disable, so I have
to wander off to Network Neighborhood to enable it.
I put a couple of icons on the desktop for disable and enable, because I do
want to disable/enable my WiFi occasionally.

That doesn't take so long for me...

Get a different computer. My Dell would return to proper use very quickly
from either standby or hibernate. My Fujitsu recovers okay from standby,
but takes so long to come back from hibernate that it is faster to reboot.
This seems to have something to do with network connectivity, not
particularly WiFi.
