Desktop not showing in Network

In the Network page in Vista, there is a networked computer that doesn't show.
My computer is connected via an ethernet cable to the router/modem (it's both in one, WAG160N). The other computer can connect to it and receive internet access. However, my computer cannot ping the other one and cannot view it connected (or at all) on the Network page. Maybe unrelated, but the 'View Full Map' button in the Network and Sharing Centre cannot create the map saying 'Responses from other devices on the network are delayed or this an incompatible router on the network.
Any help would be appreciated to ping this computer and access the workgroup.

Try going to device manage. Make sure that there are no yellow markers, regarding your connection.

Make sure you have all up to date drivers.

Test your router.

In an administrors account type cmd in search

In cmd type
ipconfig /flushdns

Try all and get back to us.
