Some times the machines can't see each other, particularly if it's wire and
wireless machines involved. The first thing you should do is see if you can
get the machines to see each other on all wire connections, before
proceeding to wireless.

If they can't see each other on all wire, then they are not going to see
each other wire to wireless.
