Through the HP support page I was directed to this page:

http://hp.dezide.com/ts/start.jsp?guide=wirelessconnection.net&sfs=pdpbanner&section=ccweb&language=...

 

which was a diagnostic for just this problem.  I said no until it asked if I could connect with a CAT 5 cable (Yes) ... it suggested I reinstall the WIRELESS driver... so I did and, on rebooting not only did the light turn blue, the entire list of neighboring Wireless LANs (including my own) came back!!  Problem fixed as far as I can tell.
