    I agree with Spear - the FON router is whats getting between the networks...

    if your desktop pc is connecting to the internet gateway (the dlink in this case) then I reckon you need to see what IP and subnet the desktop has, and ensure that the laptop is getting an IP in the same subnet... if it doesn't - is there any wan in the FON wireless router config page to make it JUST an access point for local use? so that when you connect to the FON wirelessly you're put straight onto the wired network subnet, rather than having a router in the FON?
