The IP address lease 192.168.100.11 for the Network Card with network address 0011AE0D3F89 has been denied by the DHCP server 192.168.100.1 (The DHCP Server sent a DHCPNACK message).
Disable DHCP on your desktop, and use a static IP. Your router is on a different network than your desktop/laptop.
That said, you do want to connect your cable modem to your router, and connect each computer to the router. Cable modem to desktop via USB and using ICS is kinda silly. You can use your desktop for any server duties you wish, you'll just need to configure port forwarding on your router.
