The problem you described will occur again at some point until the screen finally blacks out. There is a problem with the flex of your laptop. Inside the flex is a cable connector which connects the motherboard to the screen, and this cable transmits information from your motherboard and displays it on the screen. I recommend you take your Laptop to a service man and have the cable changed to a new one, it won't cost much.

Permanently off? There should be a hotkey on you keyboard which can turn it back on, you hold down the Fn (function key) and press the WiFi hotkey and that's it. Could you please elaborate more on why the WiFi isn't working, that is, what happened?

This is definitely a software issue then. What is the model of your Network card? You will have to update the drivers for your WiFi card from the manufacturer's website, restart your OS and it should be working fine. Make sure the WiFi is turned on when updating the drivers.
