Gerry,
I'd strongly bet that the bridge is the cause of your problem. Let's take a
look at the static route, maybe a clue there.
Try disabling ICF on both computers. ICF is only intended for protection
against direct connection to the internet - the NAT router protects you, against
the internet, in your case. For protection against the wireless network, you
should install Sygate or Zone Alarm, after we get this working.
Please provide static route tables for each computer - GerryDT and GerryLT.
Start - Run - "cmd". Type "route print >c:\route.txt" into the command window -
Open c:\route.txt in Notepad, copy and paste into your next post.
Cheers,
Chuck
