« on: June 28, 2012, 05:54:36 AM »
from Network Center:

"Some packages (p54pci-firmware) are required but aren't available. Please email texstar at gmail.com about it.

The following component is missing: /lib/firmware/isl3886pci

The required files can also be installed from this URL:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54#firmware"
