G'day,
IP addresses are categorised, here is a page from a Google search with some info on the area

When you say Wingate 6.0x on all your machines, do you mean one is the Internet gateway/server and the rest have WGIC installed?
If you could list the numbering of your network:
eg: server 192.168.xxx and client machines 192.xxx???
whether you have DHCP enabled on the clients
can they ping one another?
Report back and someone will take it further.
