Jeffrey,
who is the manufacturer of your router? I
s it running the DHCP service for your network?
It is possible that your DHCP service is not recognizing/processing the
host name option parameter^1 in the DHCP request from the N800. I know
for a fact that the Linksys RV series of routers, which do support an
optional DHCP server, do process the parameter properly. The client host
name appears as
Nokia-N800-23-14
