After a 3-hour rebuild, all is now well -- my HP Pavilion can now 
connect to the wifi network without constant hunting and failures. I 
wish I'd thought of replacing the current rt3290.bin with the one we 
built to solve the original problem, though; I could have saved the 3 
hours because I always keep copies of things like that.

Cheers

David
