i guess first just power down your modem/router for a few minutes and power them back up (no harm will occur)
edit; also, give comcast a call

Couple things, you need to turn off Windows Firewall first, as it blocks Windows Networking for reasons I don't entirely understand. Then you need to make sure your computers are on the same Workgroup (right click on My Computer > Properties > Computer Name Tab > Change). Then just share the folders you want to share and you should be good.
