When you select the folder to open it and it prompts you for a name and password

put the name and password OF the computer you are connecting TO into the boxes, not
the Router Password.

And yes you can turn off homegroup. I personally found homegroup annoying and just
pick and choose my folders that I want to share.

Why cant I access my HomeGroup?

There are several reasons why you cant access your HomeGroup. Here are the most
popular reasons for not being able to connect to your HomeGroup.

Your computer might not be connected to the network the HomeGroup is on. Make
sure the computer has network/Internet access. Try having Windows 7 troubleshoot
the Internet connection for you.
Your network location might not be set to Home. Learn how to check and change
your network location if needed.
Network Discovery might be turned off. Learn how to turn Network Discovery back
on.
Other computers in the HomeGroup might be turned off.
Other computer in the HomeGroup might not be sharing files. Learn how to share
files using HomeGroup.
Maybe someone changed the HomeGroup password. Try checking the HomeGroup
password on other computers in the HomeGroup. If the HomeGroup password was
changed, change the HomeGroup password on your computer.
Your computer might not yet be joined to a HomeGroup. Learn how to join or
create a HomeGroup.
Turn off any third party firewalls (usually bundled with antivirus software)
that are installed on your computer.
If none of these troubleshooting tips work, try restarting your computer, or
leave and then re-join the HomeGroup.

Make sure that all machines are using the same name for the workgroup, needs to be
the same workgroup name for all machines you want to share with.
Make sure that all your machines are using different machine names.

If IPv6 isn't working correctly you also won't be able to create a Homegroup. This
check list should insure that IPv6 is working correctly on your machine.

Are you running an Anti virus program? If so which one?

1. Temporarily disable Firewall and third party antivirus program on the computer
for a test.

To enable certain IPv6 components in Windows 7, follow these steps:

1. Click StartCollapse this imageExpand this ima, type regedit in the Start Search
box, and then click regedit.exe in the Programs list.
2. In the User Account Control dialog box, click Continue.
3. In Registry Editor, locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip6\Parameters\
4. Double-click DisabledComponents to modify the DisabledComponents entry.

Note If the DisabledComponents entry is unavailable, you must create it. To do

this, follow these steps:
a. In the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD (32-bit) Value.
b. Type DisabledComponents, and then press ENTER.
c. Double-click DisabledComponents.
5. Type any one of the following values to configure the IPv6 protocol, and then
click OK:
Type 0 to enable all IPv6 components.

Note The value "0" is the default setting.

I've been spreading that particular tip around the web, myself. Posting where it
can be used.
Win7, for some unaccountable reason, sees all of IPv6 as not working unless the
supposedly optional key to say which bits arent't working is present and set to
zero
