Can anyone help, pls?

Running OSX on MBP with Windows 7 in Parallels 5.

AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express both fine via Mac.

However, Windows 7 (Parallels) can see neither. I have accessed AEBS via its IP address once only from Windows AirPort Utility (noted in Mac's AirPort Utility) but it all fell apart when I tried to update the AEBS from Windows. (Ultimately I want to access an external HD wirelessly through the AEBS.)

Using Bonjour also to print via AirPort Express. Can print fine from the Mac but not from Windows. Strangely, my old Vista machine had no problems with that at all.

Both the Express & the Extreme are wired to the router. Have: disabled Kaspersky, checked that both AirPort utilities are expecting the same WPA security setting, and enabled ports TCP 3689 & UDP 5353 which were Apple Support's only ideas.

Anyone here got any helpful hints, pls?
