It's difficult to say without more information.

What are the scan channel (SC), Operating Channel (CH) and Operating PAN ID (OP) values for each radio?

Also what mode is each radio operating in (AT or API)?

What kind of output are you getting on the router XBee's pins 15 (ASSOC) and 6 (RSSI) when performing the range test?
