A router would definitely be the simplest way to take care of that scenario. all you'd need is a network card in the desktop and laptop, a router, and some cat5 cable to get the job done. We like the Linksys BEFSR41, which is a 4 port router/switch. You set it up manually via a set up page on the net. I would imagine other brands use a similar method.
