This is the confusion you've added clarity to.

Yes, I know it only bridges, but I didn't realise that BVI1 is the 
untagged VLAN.  For historical reasons, VLAN1 at one of our sites is the 
production LAN.  Now there's a job to renumber everything.

I set up a FastEthernet sub-interface, a Dot11Radio0 sub-if and a BVI 
interface for each of the VLANs I had, and clearly here's where I went 
wrong.  It's not a straightforward job, and makes setting up VPNs look 
really quite easy.

Thanks for your input, I now have one AP live :-)
