I am sorry for being unclear. Was getting late for a meeting.

I meant for you to follow the instructions in 
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54 . Here they ask the user 
to download the firmware and rename it to something depending on the 
chip used in the device and the kernel of your system, and put it in 
/lib/firmware/

The supported device list is at 
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54/devices

I also did a little more digging in the fedora-list archives. There was 
another user probably with the same device as you.[1] And I believe 
after a lengthy discussion on the list[2] we came to the conclusion that 
at _that_ moment it was not supported properly. But I think things might 
have changed as your device seems to be listed here[3].

You might want to look for the appropriate firmware on this page.

Hope this helps. If you still can't make this work, try IRC: #prism54 on 
freenode. However I have to say this, you have to be very patient there. 
There are very few active users. You will get a response but might take 
an hour or two.
