No connection from wireless PC's and wired PC's
I have3 pc in my home network, and one X-Box 360.2 PC's are hard wired and one PC and the X-Box 360 are wireless. All run through a Netgear wireless router. I just installed Windows 7 on all the PC's. The two wired PC's both see each other but can not see the wirelss PC and the X-Box 360 on the network. The wireless PC and the X-Box 360 both see each other but not the hardwired PC's. I have a printer on one of the hardwired PC's that both of the hardwired PC's can use. I would like to get the wireless PC to print to the printer and the hardwired PC's to stream data to the X-Box 360.What can I do to get the wireless devices to see the hardwired devices on the network and visa-versa?

Hi, Please try the following first: 1. Please check if all the computers are on the same subnet and in the same workgroup. 2. Check if you can ping the wireless computers from the computer which has a wired connection or vice versa. 3. Please check if you can access the shared printer from the wireless computers with \\computer name\printer name. 4. If possible, please also upgrade the routers firmware to see how it works. Thanks.
