SSH connection problem

Can you give "ifconfig" output from both laptop and desktop?

What does "tracepath 192.168.1.35" (assuming your desktop IP is
192.168.1.35 based on ssh output below) give from your laptop and
desktop?

I'm assuming that your desktop and laptop are sitting on the same LAN
segment (side-by-side at home?)

Regards,
Dustin
