I'm beginning with Arduino and I have to make two of them communicate via WiFi. I'm going to implement the examples for a WiFi Client and WiFi Server in their tutorials page.

The problem is I only have one Arduino WiFi Shield which is working fine. But I also have a chipKIT WiFi Shield.

My question is: Can I use this other shield to do what I want with one of my Arduinos (I have Uno, Mega and Due) and how? Because I've plugged the shield and I've uploaded the code but it didn't seem to work.

No, you can't. The only libraries available for the chipKIT WiFi Shield are written specifically for the chipKIT boards.

Also, how have you plugged the board into an Arduino? The chipKIT WiFi Shield has Digilent's own header layout with a double row of headers where the Arduino only has a single row. Half the pins won't be plugged into anything.
