Do you have the right firmware loaded? One of them has to have the controller firmware, and the other the slave. I don't recall the right terms off the top of my head but ...

Which XBees? There are several hardware modules and protocols.

Give the Series # and the Firmware Version # as reported by the Query command in X-CTU.
