This is probaly very basic stuff, but i cant figure out how to share folders between my two pcs. I have a wireless router which connects to my main pc via ethernet cable, and my secondary pc connects wirelessly to router. I am able to access the internet through both pcs, therefore i know that the router is working.

Am i missing something here?
