First off, make sure the pc's are actually connected -- try to see a shared file.
If not, you probably have an internet protocol configuration (IPCONFIG) problem.
Try these two commands from the command prompt (both machines):
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
If that works, you probably need to adjust the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
settings.
Search using "IPCONFIG troubleshooting" and/or "DHCP troubleshooting" for more information.
The router documentation (how ip addresses are assigned) should also be consulted.
