host names not working:

computer is a laptop with a realtec 10/100 port and built in wifi.

the wired ethernet works flawlessly
but the wireless has issues with host names.

example..computer downstairs named server
usually test it by "ping server".
when connected via wifi, i cant ping any host names, but IP's work.

all other computers work with host names, but cant ping the laptop's...again, the IP works in all cases.

wtf is up here?

Can you ping computers outside your network?
