Default networking ME to win 7 via router

Hi,

Not even the router? If so it would appear your Win 7 system isn't as yet
correctly configured for networking. You mentioned having a box running
Vista. The Win 7 machine should be able to see the Vista machine even if it
cannot access files on Vista due to Vista having no visible shares. Have
you tried running the networking wizard (Set up a new connection or network)
from Win 7's Network & Sharing Centre?

Are you perhaps running a third party fire wall? If so the useful link
posted by Joan in this thread tells you which ports you need to open.
