Yes, just establish a network through the network wizard. Do a little reading, but it's not hard.

Yes, you can have a shared folder which you set on the Administrator computer to which the wireless router is connected and you must also enable file and printer sharing at the adminstrator terminal - most of these options are available in the control panel.
This way you will be able to share files and folders and even a printer.

Yeah, at least you can share the network drive between your computers that are behind the router. Just right click on any folder or file on your computer that you want to share and click on sharing and security. Let your curiousity take it from there, as its easy to do.

Sure, as long as you have enough ports to work with.
