Network Connecting In Only One Direction

Wednesday January 11, 2006
| Discussion | From a site member - "I have 2 laptops connected to a wireless router. One laptop is able to ping the other but not the other way. Both have proper IP addresses. Both are able to access the Internet thru the router. Both have Windows firewall turned off, and have identical routing tables. Both have the same workgroup name. What could be wrong? I'm going crazy with this. Please help me."
