2 ways of doing this (this is based on a vigor 2600). If you just want web
access to the laptop (port 80) then you can configure a NAT rule saying
anything coming in on port 80 send to your pc (what ever address it has
behind the firewall ie 192.168.1.56)

2nd way (which is the easiest but most dangerous) is to configure the pc's
address as the DMZ host - that means all traffic coming to your real
internet address will be sent to that pc - not always desirable as anything
and anyone is allowed through unless you setup firewall rules to block
them.

hope this helps, let us know if you need more
