Setting up a lan using a Netgear Cable Router RT314

Hi,

Anyone know if it is possible to set up a LAN using my Netgear RT314 Cable router?

I've got 4 machines (3 running win2k and 1 running win98SE) and they all have NICs and can get to the net through the router. I am pretty certain that there is way to share files and my one printer with all the machines but....

Anyone know any good resources for doing this or just have some advices?

Thanks
 
Enable file/print sharing on all of the computers. Right click on "my netowrk places" and go to the properties for your connection. Make sure that file and print sharing for microsoft networks is checked. On win98 go into the network properties and check the box that says enable file/print sharing. Then go to the machine with the printer attatched and then share the printer. Right click on the printer and go to properties, then to the sharing tab. Go to every computer and install a network printer, you will have trouble connection to a network printer from a win98 machine probs. Share any other files that you want to.
