Make sure file and printer sharing are turned on in each of the two computers. Then go to each folder you want to share and make sure that sharing is turned on for that particular folder. Temporarily disable the firewalls on both computers. Go into "My network places" on each computer and see if the folder(s) that you have set up to share are shown. If all is well enable the firewallls again. Do not worry about the firewall on the router as that is for your WAN which has nothing to do with your LAN.

I've gone through and run the Windows "Network Setup Wizard", but my 2 computers still aren't talking to each other and I can't use the printer or file sharing. I have Windows XP Pro on both and am using JAWS 8. My router is a Linksys. My firewall is AVG, the full paid suite version on one, and the free AVG 7.5 and AVG Anti Rootkit on the other. Both computers are connected to the router and the router is connected to the cable modem. I've been trying to figure this out for months and just can't get it. Any ideas would really be appreciated. Thanks.
