There are, but I've tried flipping it on and off to no avail. Also, the current setting is confirmed to be on in Linux. Just to make absolute certain I'm not screwing something up, what is the best way to see what the card is doing at the low level?

I bet it's just rfkill and we need to configure it up properly.
