ping

I have a Windows 7 and an XP machine connected to a NETGEAR wireless router. Both machines can log into the network and surf the web. Both are connecting wirelessly.

I can ping the router from each machine and get a reply. I can ping each machine from the router and get a reply. But i cannot ping each machine from the other; getting a request time out.

Subnet IP Addresses are 192.168.1.* Router =1; Win7 = 10; XP = 11;

Firewall is currently off in both systems. Since i can ping from router im picking that not the problem anyway.

If i try to ping from xp to win7 i get Request Timed Out. If i try to ping from Win7 to Xp i get destination host unreachable.

What should i do now? Thanks
