Help with connection between Wired/WL comps

I have a Di-624 router, and two computers (one wired and one wireless) both are connected and able to see the internet. The wired computer is 192.168.0.100 and the wireless is 192.168.0.102. They are on the same subnet as you can see. 192.168.0.102 is using WPA-PSK Authentication. 192.168.0.100 can ping 192.168.0.102 but 192.168.0.102 cannot ping 192.168.0.100. I am trying to network these two comps but obviously if the wireless cant ping the wired then there is no way that it will see any shared network drives. Anyone have any suggestions? thanks
 
you can share without pinging. You could (and probably do) have a Software Firewall blocking ICMP. It also may be blocking file sharing traffic.

Turn off firewalls, and type "\\ipaddress\" and see if you get anything.
