David:  there are two problems with your setup:

May 15 19:11:08 hostn nm-system-settings:    ifcfg-fedora: parsing
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 ... 
May 15 19:11:08 hostn nm-system-settings:    ifcfg-fedora:     error: Missing SSID

and:

May 15 19:11:12 hostn firmware.sh[2042]: Cannot find  firmware file 'isl3890'
May 15 19:11:12 hostn kernel: prism54: request_firmware() failed for 'isl3890'
May 15 19:11:12 hostn kernel: eth1: could not upload firmware ('isl3890')

For the first one, you'll need to make sure the ifcfg file is correct, or fix up
the device in system-config-network (System->Administration->Network) and make
sure the "Controlled by NetworkManager" box is checked.

For the second, it looks like the firmware is missing for your card, so the card
won't work correctly.  Did the card at least load it's firmware in F8?
