Thanks Ben,
Yes, understand the external. I'll leave my internal as it is for now.

Thankyou Ben,
This makes sense to me. Yes, I do still have netbios enabled on the
network, each client. I do still recall, from years ago, that netbios
should be disabled as a security enhancement (grc.com?), but I have not
gotten back to that yet, and, my network may not be fully enabled yet cuz
I think I keep dicking with it, I suppose!! I do accept that a lot of
pebcak still exists at this address!
I'll leave my 'hosts' and 'lmhosts' files alone! Just checking........ :)
Ah, 'hostname' call. Nope, not yet. I have not yet assigned the device a
hostname. Thankyou.
I will continue my troubleshooting of the brick.
Best,
Duncan
