    Hi All, I have a PC 192.168.1.33, notebook 192.168.1.36, modded XBOX 192.168.1.34 all connected to a ADSL WLAN router 192.168.1.1: both PC and notebook run XP Home - to complicate matters the notebook is in German. I have been trying to set up a home network with no success so I decided to test all the connections and found that I can't ping the notebook from the PC. But I can FTP from both the Notebook and the PC to the XBOX. Huh???

    I have tried shutting the firewalls, have set the router firewalls allow this traffic and yet am still pingless. I don't get it. Please help! Or direct me to a good guide.
