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
