It sounds like the router is isolating the wireless and wired sections, though I see nothing in the specifications that say that it does.

Can you ping a wired computer from a wireless one by name, and then the other way?

Why is the base address at x.x.x.2 instead of the default? Have you tried resetting the router to factory defaults and reconfiguring just the wireless to get a connection?
