If you're still not able to properly share via reboot and after you've
double checked all configurations, I would start to think that the fact
you're using DHCP for connectivity INSIDE your network could be the
culprit.

You should be able to setup the machines inside your network with static
IP addresses, using the IP address of the "router" as your gateway for
your internet connectivity. The settings for Samba sharing allow you to
make drastic changes to the TCP/IP addresses that access the machine,
but it can become quite complex in it's configuration; easiest way might
be to give the static IP addressing scheme a go.

I haven't been in windows in awhile, but if you go to my network places,
i think you should be able to see what is sucessfully shared.  That
might be a first step.

Ports 137, 138 and 139 need to be opened up; as well, in the settings
for SAMBA (/etc/samba/smb.conf) you SHOULD have the same workgroup name;
and double check your settings for LinNeighborhood.
