Thank you, everyone for your help. 

Suddenly, with no intervention from me, my XP machine (on which I'm
typing this) is back on the network.

    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 1ms, Maximum = 60ms, Average = 18ms

I don't recall doing anything to cause it to work again. 

I had copied some stuff from the web to a spreadsheet, and wanted my
wife to manipulate it, as she is a spreadsheet fundi, and was about to
copy it to a flash drive when she said she could see my computer on
the network again, and so I copied it to the public directory on her
Win 8.1 laptop, and it worked. 

I then set up my laptop and pinged it, with the result seen above.
