I've searched nearly everywhere I could to find an answer, but kept failing to get anywhere.

I have a Dell D630 (Nvidia GPU edition) running Mavericks, but I am completely out of ideas on how to get wireless working. My wireless card says "IC:4104A-ARBXB63H" on top, but I got mixed results whilst searching that said it was Broadcom or Atheros.

Anyone have any ideas what to do with this?

Use DPCIManager -> PCI List to first determine what hardware you have.
 
This tells me:
Vendor: 168C
Device: 001C
Sub Ven: 103C
Sub Dev: 137A
Vendor Name: Qualcomm Atheros
Device name: AR242x / AR542x Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express)

Edit: I still can't find a way of getting it to work, after searching for both AR242x and AR542x
 
This card will not work. i had to buy a new one for my D630. This is one of them Atheros AR5BXB112 AR9380 or Atheros AR5BXB92,
Broadcom BCM94322MC, Atheros AR5BXB112 (using in iMac since may 2011)
