Mt PC will not let other computers connect wirelessly

Have set up Belkin 54g Router on my main pc and connecting to internet fine.
Laptop is using belkin wireless network adapter and is talking to the router although I cant access the internet from it. The Belkin icon on the laptop is blue.

Tried to set up home network on main pc but comes up with message "other computers cant connect to the internet through this computer. In addition to its internet connection this computer must have a connection to your network"

I would be extremely grateful for any help. The main pc is using XP and the laptop Windows 2000 Professional. My ISP is BT Yahoo Broadband

Thanks in advance !!
