| 1269062 | 2012-04-10 01:04:00 | Hi all, I've got an issue with my home network. I can only access PC's on my network using IP addresses rather than their host names. They are all running Windows 7 and my Netgear router is setup as the DHCP server. Any ideas? Cheers. |

| 1269064 | 2012-04-10 02:55:00 | Yep. Had an issue accessing one of the PC's via RDP (setup with host name) so I pinged the host name of the PC and I used the IP address to successfully connect via RDP. | GR8Metal (14133) | ||
