Router will not reslove hostname was created by wleung
Hi there,

Got the Vigro 2710 Router and after I install the router, the print sharing is only work on IP address but not host name.

when I use nslookup on the PC it say cannot found the host name.

I can go to shares with \\Host name. when I connect the printer and trying to print it is complete froze the machine. i believe it try to find the host name and fail to do so using netbios name on the end.

I can ping the machine using Hostname.

one machine is use XP and another use Vista.

anyone have similar issue before?

many thanks.

William
