Try:
1. Right click on My Network Places and select Properties. If you have a
Local Area Connection for the wireless card, disable it and any other
unneeded connections.
2. Click Advanced/Advanced Settings. Move the Local Area Connection for the
pcm100 to the top of the binding order list.
3. Check TCP/IP properties for the pcm100 connection and make sure that no
default gateway or DNS server is configured.
4. Make sure that the firewall is not enabled on the pcm100 connection.
