Workgroups and LAN

[Guest Stef]

My workgroup consists of three computers, 2 Laptops connected to a

router/modem wireless, and a Desktop connected to the router via cable. I

created the workgroup by using the wizard. When I check "My network places"

they are all in the Internet and not in a Local Network. Should they not all

be in a local network?

I just looked into the router settings. It seems as if a firewall rule denies

all inbound traffic and I'm not sure of how to change this rule. Couldthis be

part of the problem?
