Cannot Complete Network Setup Wizard

[Guest]

I've been trying to configure my network for file and printer sharing and
Internet access and I can't seem to get them all to work.

I have a dsl connection, through Verizon and their standard Westell
Wirespeed modem. Seems to work fine.

That connects to a Linksys wireless router model befw11s4 (i've recently
upgraded the firmware in that).

Then the router connects to my main home computer and two other home
computers as well as the wireless connection to my laptop which I'd like to
be able to use in other parts of my house.

I've talked to Linksys and seem to be able to get online, but I can't get
file and printer sharing to work. When I run the Network Setup Wizard I end
up getting a message that states the following...

****************
Cannot Complete the Network Setup Wizard - Other computers cannot connect to
the Internet through this computer. In addition to its Internet connection,
this computer must have a connection to your network.
****************

That's where I'm stuck. Any help is appreciated.

Hi.

It is better under his situation to configure the Network Manually.

May be this can Help: http://www.ezlan.net/sharing.html

Joe,

wrong choice. You don't want the other computers to connect
through this computer.

Tell the wizard you want to connect through the residential
gateaway, which is what Microsoft calls your router.

Make that "gateway". Bad typo.
