Can't connect to server hosted on another computer on the same network

I recently bought a new gaming computer. For a while I've played Tekkit with a friend, hosting the server on my laptop. Now I want to play Tekkit on the new computer, but in order to have high graphics and a good FPS, I'm continuing to host the server on my laptop. However, when I tried to connect to the server with my new PC, I got the error message "Connection timeout. Failed to connect: Connect". I tried both localhost and my router's public IP address, but both produced the same result. Can anyone help me?
