This happened to my nephew's laptop, and I tracked down the problem. Details are here:

The attachment to that email is a Python script that restored wireless function on that laptop. Depending on your point of view, it could be more or less scary than pulling the battery.

*** WARNING: that script has magic numbers hardcoded. If I were you, I would check that your DSDT has the same magic numbers before you even think about running the script. ***
