Sharing files via router

[TheCROW163]

Hi All,
I was wondering if you can help me out with this:
I have a Wireless router connected to cable internet and I have 2 vista computers connected to the internet through it. I have WEP key on it.
I need to share files between those 2 PCs and remote Desktop. How can it be done? I would also like to make it in a secure way so that no one can hack into my PCs via the Wifi Router.
Anyone has a guide for vista about this?
Thankyou kindly.

Thanks, I did that but with no success. I found out the reason, it because of Kaspersky firewall, when I disabled it everything worked out.
Thanks for the info.

Hi,

Check if KAV has an option to allow workgroup sharing or similar if not you can try opening ports 135-138 and 445 for traffic on the local subnet only (probably something like 192.168.x.x)
