Was wondering if anyone can allow me to swap their working airport card into mine to test if that is indeed the problem before I purchase a replacement online.

Operation is super easy and with minimal risks. Requires the removal of 10 screws on the bottom, 1 screw holding down the airport card, and 2 antennas connected to the card.

have you checked to see if its a software issue? this happened to my macbook once before on an update and it ended up being a software issue. Plugged in the computer using ethernet and found a fix for it, mind you this was like 5+ years ago.
