The non-standard settings are potentially relevant if you've done something to make them non-standard. Is there anything you've done?
Your wireless network cards - they are configured to obtain the IP Address and DNS Server automatically? Yes?
I've attached an XLS that sets out the IPCONFIG information side by side.
There is a surprise that I don't understand. The wireless laptops have been served with the DNS servers that should be served only to the router. The router would be served 192.168.4.100 & 192.168.8.100. Then using NAT, each PC (192.168.58.2 through 4) would be connected by the router to the internet using the 192.168.4.100 & 192.168.8.100 DNS address of the modem.
So I would expect the DNS Server address in the wireless laptop to be 192.168.58.1 as per the desktop.
So, no guarantees, I suggest you set into the router the static IP address for the Primary DNS server as 192.168.58.1. Leave the alternate blank. Reboot everything (sorry about that) including the modem.
I'm trying to force the DNS server for the wireless side to be the same as the wired side.
