Sounds like both laptops are on the same IP, which I didn't think was possible..

But if you go
Start>Run>"CMD"

>ipconfig

Then:
Start>Control Panel>Network (Varies depending on your OS)

now select your network, right click and select properties.
then select "IP / ICP (Internet Protocol)" then click advanced.

select manual instead of automatic and enter the values from Command Prompt.

If you do that on both laptops the IPs shouldnt be able to conflict.. because you'll have told it what it is..
