Can't ping IPs for devices not part of Windows Domain
- by GiddyUpHorsey
I have a home network with a Trendnet wireless router and a Windows Domain. The DNS server is on a Windows 2000 Server and is configured to forward queries to DNS servers provided by the ISP. The router provides DHCP and is configured with the Windows 2000 Server as the DNS server.
When I connect iPhones to the network over WiFi, the router can ping the iPhones through its browser based admin interface, but Windows machines that are part of the Windows Domain cannot. A laptop was connected to the network over WiFi that wasn't joined to the domain and it could see the iPhones.
All machines either have a fixed or DHCP allocated IP on the 192.168.0.* subnet.
How do I configure the DNS server or the Windows Domain so that Windows machines can see the iPhones?
