The best guide is probably the manual that comes with the router.
For basic features, just plug the power and lan cable to the power. For more advanced features, refer to your router's pictured guided manual. -
I would follow what the above says. I did a search of this forums and found:

What are you trying to share your and which computers are you sharing the file with?
What have you already tried? -
-
What have I done
Wi-Fi is working
Inet is working
Remote Desktop is working
but file sharing no!3 notebooks-"host" has win 7,others XP.all on same workgroup -
If you are using Vista or later, you need to put the files that you want to share in the public folder.

anyways, back to the OP's answer.
Are the xp computers upgraded to sp3? -
yes they are.
-
Try these steps:
All computers on the same workgroup
All computers have identical users/passwords
All computers have simple file sharing disabled
All computers have firewalls disabled and/or appropriate permissions to enable file sharing
The Windows 7 computer is set in a private network (not public) and allows file/printer sharing
All computers can see each other in the network neighborhood
On the host computer, share the printer
Can all other computers see the shared printer and access it?
