Aw that sucks! If the card is recognized by Debian but you can't see networks or connect, you may be able to get away with just replacing the antennae instead of the entire NIC. Cursory glance says those are MHF4 Antenna, but I could be wrong. You would want to look for MHF4 for M.2/NGFF since that's the form factor of your NIC.
Looking closer at the NIC, it looks like it's not flat against the board. So it's possible that the connectors aren't making clean contact. Slap some electrical tape and/or Duct tape on that so that it's flat :)

I can’t get wireless to work, so I gotta use my Ethernet… Which is connected through half burned off fibres… Any idea for the wifi issue?

I really hope that this is the answer, purely because adding more tape to fix an incredibly tape-heavy setup would be hilarious.
