Hi Ben, this is a windows configuration. To answer the question, using Windows 7 navigate;
Control Panel\System and Security\Windows Firewall
and then "Advanced Settings" on the left side.
Essentially, you need to allow exception for each remote subnet within the firewall. By default windows block all traffic not a member of its LAN.

Hi Ben, this inquiry is better suited for the Microsoft forums. Here is a process I made on my Window 7 computer. I can't test it since I'm at home but it should work. This is just an example, which you will have to modify IP addresses, services, etc for your own needs.
1.) Open your firewall and go to advanced settings
2.) Click Connection Security Rules
3.) Navigate to Action -> New Rule
4.) Select option "Custom"
5.) Specify the IP addresses or subnets
6.) Modify endpoint 1 to suit your needs, my example is the whole 192.168.1.0/24 subnet
7.) Modify the endpoint 2 to suit your needs, my example is 192.168.2.0/24
8.) Choose the requirement for the inbound and outbound connections
9.) Choose the authenticate method
10.) Choose the services or ports you want to allow, my example I chose all (all traffic without restrction)
11.) Specify the profile
12.) Name the profile and put a description (this is very important so you have some form of idea what is going on when you look back at these rules)
