Wireless Internet is perfect but cannot share files

I have an ADSL internet subscription that goes from the plug on the wall to a
D-Link 524G Wireless router. From this Wireless router I am able to connect
two wireless computers, one using XP Home (The desktop) and another XP Pro
(The laptop). I am using a USB Wireless card from D-Link AirPlusG, 802.11g, 4
10/100 port. The laptop uses a Wireless BusCard to connect to the internet.

Everything works perfectly when it comes to internet connection.

Now I want the two pcs to connect with each others, for file sharing,
printer... what should I do?

Thanks for any help I can get.

I set up a workgroup but I think I have a firewall problem. I think I know
how to deal with that.

I'm saved for the moment and looking forward to start sharing files.

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,

As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what is allowed
to be shared.
