    Maybe you are using a manual dns server on the cable-computer?

    Get the IP of gmail with the wlan-computer and try it directly with the cable-computer.

    not trying to be captain obvious, but have turned on the url filter?

    also, since this is a problem that still exists... what firmware are you using?
    if it's oleg, download the latest here: http://code.google.com/p/wl500g/downloads/list

    since it also seems to be depending on a lan or wlan connection... what sort of setup are you using?
    have you tried to have the router in router mode and only change the wifi settings and the settings to allow the router to connect to the internet?

    maybe a dns compatibility issue....
    maybe you can try to enter other dns servers in your router config.
    ip config -> wan & lan -> WAN DNS Setting

    I've very good experience with opendns which is free, but it requires registration I think: http://www.opendns.com/
    or google dns which is also free: http://code.google.com/intl/en-GB/speed/public-dns/
    or ofcourse another public dns you like...

    it sorted a lot of slow performance dns requests over here
