WinXP & networking question

Hi Group

My friends have just bought a Belkin wireless router/access point and USB
dongle. They plugged it in, installed what needed to be installed and, hey
presto, internet connection was achieved on both machines.

What they thought is that the computers would also see each other for the
use of sharing files/folders and printers but cannot seem to find any
instructions in the book telling them how do go about setting this up.

Is it possible to set up internet connection sharing & file & printer
sharing? If so can someone give some simple instructions how it can be
done.

Thank you

TymaUK

You can DL a MS Doc that will walk you through this and has troubleshooting
tips as well. Hope this helps!
