The wireless works more or less, but has very weak reception. I have to be within about 20 feet of the wireless router at home, or I lose the connection. I have not been able to use it at all at work. Not sure if the weak connection could be a driver issue, but as I'm seeing the same log messages, I thought a followup was in order. I ruled out a hardware problem by booting easypeasy from a USB stick. Wireless performance in easypeasy was fine.
