If I understand you correctly, your LAN looks like

                      +-------+
desktop --------------: ADSL  |
                      | modem :--- internet
laptop --- router ----:       |
                      +-------+

But who's doing the NAT?  Is it just the router?  If so then that's
probably your problem.  The desktop needs to be NATed too.  Or is the
modem doing NAT (too?)?
