Hi Brian,
I've seen some similar problems before, On a WinXP system, if the XP
firewall is up, I've seen it block the audio services. Or even in general
if there is a firewall inbetween the the laptop subnet (wireless router?)
there could be blockage there.
On a MacOSX system, Some reason it doesn't support encrypted Venues. We
have our own Bridgeserver here, The Powerbook couldn't see anyone due to
the Venue had encryption on. Once I dropped encryption, it worked fine.
I hope this will help!
