My guess is your wireless boxes are on a different IP
subnet than your non-wireless boxes. Make sure they are
all configured to use the same subnet.

The purpose of a router is to route packets between subnet
boundries. However your router is only going to
automatically configure it's routing table for Internet
purposes. If your going to use it to route between
internal networks your going to have to create a static
route statment or you can use a dynamic routing protocol
such as RIP. Becareful using RIP however,RIP does not
support Classless Inter Domain Routing. If you use a class
B address with a class C subnet RIP will not work. Instead
configure your router to use RIPv2.

Cheers
 
Thanks, oz. Those suggestions didn't help, either.
Subnets are set automatically on all 3 machines by
default. I appreciate your time.
