Hello all,
I have some odd goings on i hope someone can help with.
Since our business line was installed (ntl modem in bridge mode goes to router dlink 615) our internal DNS seems a little odd.
We have various PC's inside the network i used to be able to ping them using the name of the device for example i could ping my nas by typing "ping nas" and it would work out what IP it was and wonder off and find it on the network.
Now below is a ping to a PC on our network called DE03
C:\Users\itsupport>ping de03

So basically do i need to edit something in my router ( i had a look couldnt find anything) or is it a NTL issue? :)
