We have a small network at work using a Linksys wireless router. I can file share with the PC's that are wired to it, but I can't seam to file share with a laptop using wireless. When I type in the address of the folder I want to access it says that i can't find it. Any suggestions?
 
Did you enable file sharing on that labtop? If you already did it, then try to type this \\<that-labtop-IP> in any explorer bar, see whether you can access it.

If still cannot, then you might not do file sharing correctly or there is firewall blocking on labtop. Check and troubleshoot more..
