I knew this was going to be a problem with the routing split. (another 
issue will be multicast dns)

Like so many other things, I'd like to get this to zero configuration, 
while keeping wireless and wired interfaces separated...

The fix :

1) install wins support with the samba3 package (via:

   opkg update
   opkg install samba3 luci-app-samba

(or install via the web interface)

2) configure it to be in the workgroup and announce on the subnets. It 
should then become the    'master' browser for that domain.

While I recall this setup as straightforward (edit either 
/etc/config/samba and/or /etc/samba/smb.conf.template) and used it to 
share a flash disk across a XP/Vista network as well as printers, that 
was waaaay back in may.

however I do not know if windows 7 has 'extra' firewalling features in 
re subnets at this point. As an enterprise OS I sure would hope not and 
it's merely the missing wins announcement that is failing you.

start it via

/etc/init.d/samba3 start

Wash, rinse, repeat. When it works...

3) Enable it on boot via the web interface
