Yes, file and print sharing will not be affected my the way you connect. Sharing large files over wireless may not be a great idea though.

Yes you can share a printer and files with a workstaton that is connected to a wireless router. What you want to do is make sure that the workstation that your will be using as the share point is connected to the router -- I used a link-sys 4 port wirless router - and connect my workstation to one of the ports. Then simply make sure the you have created the share for your files and pritners. Once this is done simply browse your network and connect to the printer or files. (hope this helps.)
