  I'm going to assume the machine named 'Gateway' also NATs traffic bound for the internet, and I'm going to pull unix routing commands from memory :-)


  I'll also assume Gateway has an external of 68.2.2.2/24 that faces a Cox cable modem.


   The default gateway on 'Gateway' should be set to 68.2.2.1

   On Gateway you should add a route to 192.168.2.0/24

   route add -net 192.168.2.0/24 192.168.1.5


  On Laptop you should just have a default route pointed at 192.168.1.1

  On 'another computer' you should have a default route pointed at 192.168.2.1


  Simple, isn't it?
