-Name resolution can be improved by adding to your LMHosts file on the remote PC. It is located in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc\LMHosts.sam Open it up with Notepad, it has instructions included. At the bottom add an entry like " 192.168.1.101 ServerName #Pre" hit enter at the end of the line (important). Then save as LMHosts without any extension. If you save as "LMHosts" with quotations you can be sure there is no hidden extension. Now you should be able to ping or connect to that device by name.

Here is a link to how to adjust and 'tweak' for optimum MTU size if you want to experiment.
