rvandam:
I tried everything in de wifi router. Put the client pc in a DMZ, switch the firewall off etc. etc. Nothing worked, so pulled a new utp cable to the client.

Next time I will look for a decent wlan router which supports bridging. :-)

JohnS:
Its not the wifi router thats the issue (unless you have wireless isolation turned on or some really weird router).
Its the firewall in Windows on the network connections.


Wifi router firewall and DMZ relates only to outside traffic getting in, it does not affect local traffic - wireless and wired computers are on the same network with no restrictions. To me its an issues with your wireless on the laptop. Are you running any Internet Security software like AVG or Nortons? If so, turn off the firewall in that, or disable the whole system temporarily for testing.
