Thanks for the great finds Rok, I'll be running those circles all night from here on out 
And gold_finger, I will check it out on that search engine, thanks. I found something else old though in my /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
Basically it seems as if on boot up, it's removing iwlwifi, then runs /sbin/modprobe -r mac80211, could this blacklist file be blocking the machine recognizing the card at all?
I only started looking at it after reading this (someone with my exact card 43b1 finding a solution):

Think it's worth a shot on my machine?
