This is unfortunate.  It would be really useful if you had a different
MB.

Well what kind of output do you see on the desktop?  Also, if valid
packets are showing up on the laptop you should see them in tcpdump.  If 
your able to see packets from the receivce debug dumper and not in
tcpdump then the place its failing is fairly easy to identify.  Further
if you have debug on (which if your getting tons of output you do).
Every failure exit point has debug output for it.  So.. send me some of
this debug output please and perhaps I can help.
