Home Networking

[Guest]

I have just bough A D-Link router and was able to share
my broadband internet between two of my computers without
any set up. I however am unable to set up a network to
share my files and play multiplayer games. Can some one
help me?

i have tried making a network through a network setup
wizard but when i saved the files to a floppy and ran it
on my other computer, both computers apperantly made
their own networks and r unable to connect even though i
gave them the same workgroup name.

my router is connected to both computers and to a modem

Internet-> cable modem-> router-> 1) win XP

\/
2) win 98SE
