I have the same problem but didn't think of such a literal solution!

Here's the error:

Sep 15 17:04:04 localhost firmware_helper[1886]: Loading of /lib/firmware/* for prism54 driver failed: No such file or directory
Sep 15 17:04:04 localhost kernel: prism54: request_firmware() failed for 'isl3890'
Sep 15 17:04:04 localhost kernel: eth0: could not upload firmware ('isl3890')
Sep 15 17:04:04 localhost kernel: eth0: islpci_reset: failure

Did you bugzilla it?
