Oops. I commented on a duplicate instead of this one. Sorry.

It's a bit drastic perhaps but you can fix this this problem permanently by making your /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state file look like so:

[main]
NetworkingEnabled=true
WirelessEnabled=true
WWANEnabled=true

And then running this magical command as root:

chattr +i /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state

In case that doesn't makes sense, you're essentially fixing the configuration options and then making the file immutable (i.e not even the root user can change it)
