Network with XP and Vista

[Guest]

I have a computer with Windows XP and a Laptop with Windows Vista.
I manage to connect both to the internet through a Wireless Network
Broadband Router SITECOM WL-153 MIMO XR. The laptop is connected via wireless
and the other via Ethernet. The router is connected to a cable modem via WLAN.
However, none of the computers manages to detect other. Therefore I do not
manage to share files.
What I am doing wrong. Probably I will have made wrong configurations. How I
can resolve this problem?
