I have 2 dell truemobile 1184 wireless routers, one setup as a gateway, and the other setup as an acces point. The acccess point is connected to the gateway via ethernet cable. Everything can communicate great with each other except for a wireless commputer connected to wireless gateway and a wireless computer connected to the wireless access point. These two computers cannot connect to each other. The settings in the computer's wireless settings are setup to connect to only wireless infrastructures and not ad-hoc. Can someone please give me any advice?

Thanks.

Do they both have network/internet access?
Can they ping each other?
Are they on the same network? (they should be)
Can a hardwired system see either?
Are they different channels? (they should be)
Static IP or DHCP?
