Greetings Gregory & list--

Have you checked the 2 computers' IP addresses from a command window
(Click Start -> Run -> type cmd -> OK) using the command ipconfig /all? If so,
do the IP addresses for each machine reside in the same network? I don't
know if a router would do this, but with one computer hooked up on the wireless side and one via ethernet cable, is it possible that the router's DHCP address assignment would have placed the two computers in different networks, like one at 192.168.0.1, and the other at 192.168.1.1? To be in the
same network, the first three sets of numbers (octets?) must be the same.

HTH.
