I still haven't done the coffee bit yet, but I have run through the
entire reset process once more. The situation is a little different
now.

The two rightmost LEDs (Power and Ethernet) are now on steadily;
formerly, Power blinked once per second. I think this shows that the
device sees the 'Net. It also verifies the device's LAN settings.

I am still unable to see the configuration screens with the browser --
http://<device's IP address> times out. Therefore I can't set such
details as DNS addresses, which would enable me to connect with a
service provider.
