There are MANY reasons why you might not be seeing your shared files:

1) Bad luck. You just happened not to have your servent in any horizon. This is the most likely scenario.

2) You are sharing executables, or extensions that are hidden by default. Check your local search options.

3) Bad keywords. Are you sure that you are looking for the right thing? Try running two instances of the servant on your local machine and connect them to each other using localhost then do the search, this will isolate the Linksys out as a potential problem

4) Not connected. Be sure you are connected to the Gnutella network before looking for your files elsewhere
