Hi
If the wired computer is configured with a static IP (or for some other
reason) maintain an IP that is Not of the subnet that is used by the Belkin
than it can not connect coz it is like it on another Network.
As an example 192.168.1.x would not connect to 192.168.2.x.
This page might help you to find the cause of the problem,
