Make sure the vm is set to "NAT" for its virtual ethernet.  That *should* just
route everything through your laptop's network connection.

You could also have firewall issues.  What are you using for firewall software?
I've seen Issues with ZoneAlarm.  There's a workaround (mentioned on the 
Wiki) but it's been ages since I've done it so I can't provide more detail.
