Cannot find USRP in matlab 2011b in windows with the command "findsdru"

I have done with the following steps: 1 downloaded version 003.002.003 of the firmware and FPGA images 2 configured host computer IP address to be 192.168.10.1 3 when I ping 192.168.10.2, 0% loss which mean the network connected. 4 But when I input "findsdru" the first time,"ans =No devices found". At the second time,"ans =Empty string: 1-by-0".At the 3rd time,"The conversion from a local code page string to unicode changes the number of characters. This is not supported. Error in usrp_uhd_mapi"
Can someone help me?

findsdru uses broadcast packets to discover USRP radios connected to the host computer. If you have a firewall that blocks broadcast packets, findsdru returns "No devices found".
Most firewalls block broadcast packets. You can either configure your firewall to allow these packets, or turn off the firewall completely.
