Hmm, doesn't that sound like a job for the hosts file (on any of the OSes)? Unless 'server' and 'router' don't have fixed IPs somehow?

No. Then every time I make a change in my network (not just changing IPs, but when I add a machine), I would have to modify a bunch of host files on all my different machines. No, this is actually what DNS is made for. As I said, Linux and MacOS are fine with it. It's Windows that's causing a problem.
