Start by checking for a personal firewall - misconfigured or overlooked. What
antivirus protection do you have? What make and model router is it?

Diagnose the problem, using logs from "browstat status", "ipconfig /all", "net
config server", and "net config workstation", from each computer. Read this
article, and linked articles, and follow instructions precisely (download
browstat!):
