i have 3 computers hooked up to a router...and they share files fine. in my computer i have 2 network cards, one going to the router and one going to a hub. i have a laptop plugged into the hub. my computer can see all the computers, but my laptop and the other computers can't see each other. the question...
how do i set up my computer so that the laptop can share files with the other computers?

Connect the hub to the router (you may need a crossover Ethernet cable if your router doesn't have an "Uplink" port). Plug both computer into the hub.

Set the router as the default gateway for both machines.

That's it.

Good Luck
