Not the info I needed.
Unless your router had the Desktop and Laptop (Wireless) interfaces
bridged, you need different subnets on those two interfaces.

OK, let's assume your router connection (eth0) to the Internet is good.
Then you have Interface A (eth1) connected to your desktop.
You have Interface B (wlan0 or eth2) connected to your laptop.
A and B, unless you are running a bridge, must have IPs on different
subnets:
A: 192.168.0.1 with Destop 192.168.0.2
B: 192.168.1.1 with Laptop 192.168.1.2
each address above uses netmask 255.255.255.0 w/ broadcast at
xxx.xxx.xxx.255
This also makes masquerading (SNAT) to the Internet easy:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/23 -o eth0 -j SNAT
--to-source xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
This help?

worry about DNS later. Get basic networking working first.
