There's a chance that the Windows boxes are using Windows networking to
work out name resolution.  What you need is to have DHCP and DNS servers
tied together.  Some routers do not do that, but you haven't told us
which model.  If yours cannot do that, you can shift the DHCP and DNS
serving role off the router to a computer.
