I've just bought a Linksys Wireless B Broadband router and hooked it up to 2 different PCs.

It splits the broadband connection fine but I want to share files between the 2 PCs also.... is this possible with the router or am I just talking bollocks??

The 4 ports for computers is just a 10/100 switch that happens to have a router too. There is no reason why you couldn't share files.
