I am having the exact same issue with the Acer Aspire 5515. What's really puzzling is that Acer doesn't have this computer listed at all on their Support site! I suspect that is because this is a brand-new model Acer just put out a couple weeks ago -- everything posted about the Aspire 5515 on the Internet is from the last 7-10 days.
Here's my output for various commands
lspci:

lsmod and dmesg both contain no information about wireless. This is clearly a driver issue but I have no idea how to solve it. Anyone got an idea? I am going to open a bug for this.
