I'd greatly appreciate insights from you professional network admins since I'm out of ideas.
One host on the network, the Toshiba laptop, communicates via a wireless connection to both the LAN and, via the router/bridge the Internet. From the laptop I can ping other LAN hosts as well as external sites. However, from the main server/workstation I cannot ping (or otherwise access) the laptop. When I try I'm told that the destination is unreachable. Usually I see this when the network is down, but it's up and running just fine. I suspect the issue is with the wireless access point, which is another node on the LAN. I cannot ping that host, either; there's no message, just dropped packets. Any and all thoughts on why communications _from_ the laptop work while attempts _to_ the laptop fail are appreciated.
