I am up and running! Thank you particularly for the link for the SD formatter as Windows was giving me error messages and not allowing me to format "normally." And thanks to both of you for steering me to an SD card problem rather than a networking one. Solution (imo): When I burned the image to the SD card (G: drive, for me), after it completed successfully I got a pop-up that informed me that Drive H could not be used successfully unless it was formatted, so I hit "OK". This apparently created a small USB drive partition on the SD card which was totally unexpected. The third time I burned an image I removed the SD card without hitting OK to format the H: drive. I guess that was idiosyncratic to my machine or something. Sorry, I did not check to see if there is now a USB H: drive partition on the successful image. If it could be useful to know for future trouble-shooting I could do that if anyone wants. If the creation of an extra drive on the SD card is an expected occurrence, a notation should probably be added somewhere.
