Re: Network question

[Jason Schindler <jschindler@bucket440.com>]

If you can ping the server from the desktop and the desktop from the 
server, it sounds to me like your network is functioning properly.  I 
apologize for the additional questions, but what specifically are you 
trying to accomplish over the network that isn't working?  Is there a 
chance that the laptop/server are on one subnet and the desktop is on 
another? 

I don't have any experience with your specific router, but I would be 
surprised if all the machines had to be wireless to communicate with 
each other.
