Comment: Hopefully i can get a better understanding on it. Scenario:have a linksys router, have a hardwired machine ME, have 2 wireless machines 98/me, on both wireless machines i can't ping by hostname, i can ping by ip address, i set static ip on both, reinstalle tcp/ip and the same situation, my hardwired machine works fine, do any of u know if this kind of problem has anything to do with the router? and if so can u explain to me how will the router have a wireless dns issue.

Reply: (edit)what is the ip address you are assiging to your wireless machines? They need to have the same dns server your hardwired machine has. but this sounds like a different issue? can you ping by netbios name?

Reply: (edit)Maybe a DNS cache issue ar bad DNS.
Can you manually insert the DNS servers IPs?
Use at least 2 of them in the TCP/IP settings applet.
