Hi!
I don't know if I can help, because of your "wlan0" output; maybe you find a hint in my help (link1).

Hi there,

Thanks for replying but i already fixed the problem by swapping the wireless card with another one i still had laying around. since wireless is essential on this computer and needing to have it done by tommorow that was the only option.

Thanks anyway!
