I have 3 computers sharing a dsl connection with a Linksys BEFSR41 but I don't know how to use it to share files internally. I want to transfer a huge number of files to a new computer so that I can reformat the hard drive of an older computer.

How do I do this?

Right click your hard drive that you want shared, click sharing, and tell it to be a shared folder...I'm assuming that you have successfully networked all of your computers and that you can see their names in network neighborhood. I have all my computers' hard drives shared on my network and I suggest you do the same...it makes file transfers very easy.

That's what I haven't done. How do I use configure a network for network neighborhood?
