BCM4352 (Asus PCE-AC56) WLAN gone after rebooting

Hello. I'm using Pop!OS 18.04 and with Linux kernal 5.3.0-7625. It's a fairly recent re-install, but I have a problem now that I didn't have before. Previously all I had to do was install the bcmwl-kernel-source package and it would show my WLAN card immediately and consistently in network-manager. Now however, it went from showing it after I first rebooted to dissappearing after every reboot.
I'm not too sure what the problem is. If I enter
Code:$ sudo modprobe -r ssb wl bcma
$ sudo modprobe wlas suggested in various areas on the internet it shows up immediately. When I first got this card working with plain old Ubuntu 18.04 I remember having to muck around with mokutil in some way or another, but I can't seem to find any documentation I made on it, nor can I see any hint of the previous solution after much Googling (maybe it was a cobbled together answer.)
I edited /etc/modules and appended "wl" to the end of it but it didn't seem to do anything. Ssb and bcma are also already listed in some blacklist.conf files in /etc/modprobe.d/ while wl does not seem to be.
I included any terminal output I thought was directly relevent. Really just wondering how I can force the wl module to load on boot.
Code:$ uname -r
5.3.0-7625-generic
