Hmm, don't disable the firewall completely just slide the sliders down a couple of notches and see if that helps.

If not you could disconnect your internet connection (just take the lead out of the pc) and then disable the firewall, no danger of anything nasty coming through then as you aren't actually connected to anything.

Have you installed any new software or changed any settings on anything recently? Any new hardware added?

Have you moved either machine recently? If so (and I don't mean this to sound patronising) have you made sure that all of the cables / plugs etc are secure and in the right place?

You could also try reinstalling the drivers for your "dongle" ( I love that word ) and see if that helps.

Other than that I have to confess that I am a little stumped but I'll take a look around tomorrow and see if I can find anything that might help you.

Goodnight.
