Accessing a device over ICS from the host

(Originally on NetworkEngineering, but I was redirected here.)

I have a laptop connected to a Wi-Fi network, which shares its Wi-Fi network over an Ethernet cable to another router. That router then connects to my Kindle Fire. I have an SSH server running on that Kindle Fire on port 22.

Is there any way I can connect to that Kindle Fire FROM the Laptop?

If needed, the laptop is running Debian, so it's not really ICS but rather bridging.

Wi-Fi: Linksys
