OK, I'm guessing that you are paying for 2 Internet connections. You are using
DHCP and you have the 2 computers on different subnets - the first on
74.70.32.0/20, the second on 24.29.94.116/30.
You COULD work around this by using IPX/SPX for file sharing.

But you'd be better off getting a NAT router and paying for only 1 Internet
connection.
In either case, you can't have 2 computers with the same name. Unique names is
a requirement in all networking. You should (but don't have to) have the same
workgroup on both computers. You should NOT have the same NAME on both
computers.
