Yes, if this works it indicates that probably port 22 is being blocked
somewhere along your Internet path. If it doesn't work, I suggest
running WireShark on both the Linux server an the laptop to help trace
the problem.

Note that with your laptop connected to the WAN port with hard coded
IP addresses, you probably won't have a DNS so you'll have to use IP
addresses for the destination(s), not domain names.
