Not familiar with that model, but as long as it has at least one wired LAN port (most have 4), then yes. There will be a WAN Ethernet port which you connect to the cable modem. You then connect the desktop to one of the wired LAN ports, and connect the laptop wirelessly. I'm assuming you have a WIRELESS network card or built-in wireless interface on the laptop.
