Thanks, that's not something I would have known....I appreciate all of 
the help.   So, I've installed compat-wireless, and I think things are 
working fine now with the rt2500pci driver (see below).  But I still 
have had some trouble; the link is timing out.  Does that mean my 
password is not being accepted?

I think this means my driver is working properly:
