Sorry, I made the bad assumption that "Popcorn Hour" was an Application that was installed on your NAS not a media device. I would assume that the addition of a Popcorn Hour device on the network should not cause an inability to communicate from your PC to the NAS.

OK, lets take a step back here. Your NAS has an IP of 192.168.2.2. What is the IP address of your Wireless PC? How are the devices on your network getting their addresses, are you using static or DHCP? What is the network mask?
How are the wired devices connected? Is your wireless base also a router? If so is the NAS plugged directly into the router? Is the wireless base have a built-in firewall? If so is there a setting to bridge the wireless and wired networks? (Doing this could decrease the security of your wired network, make sure your wireless network is secured)
