My network consists of 2 XP machines, 3 Macs. Over the
weekend I added a wireless router, now my XP machines do
not see the shared folder they both had previously.
Let me say that I have no idea what I am doing when it
comes to the PC's on my network, and I dont even remember
how I got the 2 PC's to share the folder. But here is the
basics:

2 XP machines shared a folder. They were both directly
connected to a LinkSys router. I added a wireless router
at the desktop PC- meaning I connected the ethernet cable
to the wireless router, and then the desktop PC to the
wiress router.
I know it was the addition of the router that screwed it
up, I just dont know what to do now to get it back...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!.
 
assuming the second router created another subnet so that you can't see each
other. posting all computers' ipconfig /all here may help.
