The loopback interface has nothing to do with your problem. 127.0.0.1/8 on lo is normal.
Russell, Okay. I'm used to seeing 127.0.0.1/24
You should configure your laptop to use DHCP (since you don't seem to understand networking enough to use manual configuration to get it working), plug it in, automatically get a lease, and then connect your browser to 192.168.55.4. Boom, done.
I can do this but want to learn how to reach out to hosts with static IP addresses. The laptops all have static IP addresses and when used outside the office to connect to a hotel/coffee shop/library WAP they issue an IP address lease and modify /etc/resolv.conf. I expected the ER-X to do so while the laptop's static IP address was ignored.
