If your devices hostname is Airtunes it should resolve to Airtunes.gateway.2wire.net on your local network.If you access the 2wire gateways interface what is the hostname listed for the device ?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22448490 Tue, 26 May 2009 20:23:58 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22431995 Gnarlodious : OK, ok.

If I say something smart like:

ping AirTunes.localPING AirTunes.local.2wire.net (208.69.36.132)
it resolves to OpenDNS even though there is no such localnet device connected. Any ideas how to solve this problem?

How do I set this to be .local or some manageable name?

I looked around at »192.168.1.254/xslt?PAGE=J06 for a "modem hostname" but found nothing.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22423422 Thu, 21 May 2009 15:21:11 EDT
