NetBIOS not working with SoftAP?

[A6ESPF]

When I connect my ESP32 to my home LAN and use its NetBIOS name to access the device, it works perfectly. However, when I connect to the device's access point, I can't look it up anymore using NetBIOS and I have to type in 192.168.4.1 to access the device. Why doesn't NetBIOS work with SoftAP?

Are you running something specific that handles NetBIOS on your ESP32? Because if not, it's more likely either mDNS or your router that does DHCP->DNS that allows you to resolve the domain name. (Note that mDNS is also something you have to actively enable/install in your ESP32, so if you don't do that, it's likely your router.)

Sorry for the late reply. I first initialize NetBIOS on ESP32 using netbiosns_init function. Then I set the NetBIOS name using netbiosns_set_name function. This topic (viewtopic.php?f=13&t=32062) was also started by me, so you can see how I initialized NetBIOS on ESP32.
