Hi here is the situation. I have a computer in the backhouse with DSL & a
router.
In the front house I have a pc with a range expander towards the rear of the
house and in the front I have another desktop. I had no problem setting up
the computers to share the internet connection. The problem I am having is
networking them all together. I put them all with the same workgroup name
and obviously they are connected someway. My question is how do I go about
networking all three computers? I've enabled folder sharing so I don't know
what I am doing wrong. Thanks in advanced!

Is a firewall keeping you from seeing the shared folders or files on the
computers?

I thought that might of been the reason but no I even turned it off just to
see if I connect to the other pc. No such luck. Thanks anyways for your
suggestion. I appreciate it.

When you say folder sharing, are you talking about File and Printer sharing
which should be shown in the Local Area Connection Properties box?

Do you have any firewalls that might be blocking?

If you know how to ping the other computers, can you do that?

Can you tell if their IP addresses are all in the 192.168.x.x range?
