I've recently purchased a TP-Link WR841N router for my home.

It is connected to my ISP and provides internet connection to my PC(win 7 SP1 64-bit) via ethernet conn as well as my to my laptop(running XP-SP3 32-bit) via wifi.

Can u give me a detailed procedure for file sharing between my PC and laptop via the router ?

Right click the folder or drive and enable sharing. Properties > Sharing > Advanced Sharing > Share this folder > Permissions > Add 'Everyone' if it is not there. Again go to Security tab > Edit > Add 'Everyone'. Now you should see this folder under networks in the other system.
