File sharing and mapped drives



Hi all,

Just setup my PCs & laptop to use a new Zyxel 660HW wireless router.
All works fine and each PC (once added into the MAC table) is able to
access the internet just fine, problem is I can't seem to browse the
workgroup or map drives. Not tried the printer sharing yet.

This is what I have done so far, if I've missed anything then pls let
me know.

Win XP pro on all PCs
Dynamic IP addresses assigned by routers DHCP function
Allowed access based on wireless network cards MAC address.
Not got WEP working yet... is this a problem?
Each PC is in the same workgroup.
PCs can all PING each other.
Shared folders on each PC (in fact I've shared the C drive whilst
setting up)
Enabled 'File & printer sharing' in network settings.
Tried mapping without browsing (\\packard\c$)

I know this is bound to be something obvious.

Thanks in advance

Dave.
