@Kenny Ranerup. I since managed to solve this problem on my (dell) laptop by disabling a specific kernel module called "dell-laptop". It seems this module is there to support dell hardware but doesn't work very well. Since disabling it the wireless works and I haven't noticed any negative side effects, result! I guess you will not have this module seeing as your's is an IBM but if you look through your modules you may have something similar. Try disabling any modules that look like a candidate and see if that works.
