I just setup two computers at my house... I bought a router (netgear RP614) and i had no problem connecting to the internet, but i cant see the other computer on my network. I tried to go through the setup in windows xp Pro (both machines are xp pro), but I still cant see the other. Any ideas?

Make sure that the Workgroup name for both computers is exactly the same. Give each computer a unique name.
