    How are you connecting to the internet ?
    Are you using a router or Internet Connection Sharing?
    What operating system on both ?
    What IP addresses are you getting on each?

    The more information you give us the better we can help to resolve your issue.

    Well there's your problem.
    Each connected device needs to have a DIFFERENT IP address.
    The easiest way to do this is to make sure the router has DHCP enabled and the computer are set to automatically acquire IP addresses.
