Wireless with Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235

Since I'm now allowed to answer my question:

Okay, what I did to test this was:

sudo rmmod iwlwifi
sudo modprobe iwlwifi 11n_disable=1

So it seems like n-WLAN is the problem. To permanently make this work, I added options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1 to /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf as first line after the comments.

This was confirmed by chili555's comment.
