Additionally, my dmesg is available on anonfiles. I'm pretty sure I sent you a link before as well but it may be down by now.

However after reinstalling due to unrelated inconveiniences, it is unable to scan for wifi networks. Dmesg contains no relevant information except DMA RX timeout and another timeout waiting for bitmask 01800000 on register 0F90 to clear. The logs then show that the driver was loaded with a feature called PNLS, qnd it loaded version 784.2.
