I am not sure it's related to centos that much, when it comes to port forwarding, if you might use iptables correctly with several NIC(s),
if you can create a vlan with your linksys, like they talk about here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=4692
I would configure a DMZ pool for the laptop usage only, and forward the needed ports correctly towards the end user Network port.
this might help you also for your centos iptables configuration : http://www.howtoforge.com/nat_iptables

My daughter is just visiting me, and she has to contact her job using AT&T VPN on her laptop under Windows XP.
Unfortunately this does not work on my system when connected to the Linksys router by WiFi or ethernet. More precisely, the IBM Lotus "sametime" application does not work, and she cannot access the IBM Intranet homepage which she needs to use company tools and applications.
