Thank. Apparently the answer was "be more patient."

I pulled the laptop off the ethernet cable with the intention of dragging it out to the living room to spend some time RTFMing ... and I went in the kitchen to make coffee. By the time the Keurig spit the brew into the cup (Green Mountain National Wildlife Foundation blend) and I got back to the machine, it had figured it out and turned the sold red line (interruped wired connection) into a green dotted line (active wireless connection) on the big pretty picture of my network.

The end.

(I think it did that firmware upgrady thing during the initial install.)
