<div dir="ltr">It's not a router limitation, it's a matter of the website owner making the effort to make sure that his webserver responds to <a href="http://www.domainname.com">www.domainname.com</a> and <a href="http://domainname.com">domainname.com</a> in the same way (because by default, they do not, which is correct behavior because these are two completely different domain names). Typically, the hosting company will create a DNS A record for <a href="http://domainname.com">domainname.com</a>, then a CNAME record that points to the previous A record for <a href="http://www.domainname.com">www.domainname.com</a> (though there are certainly many variations on that theme, depending on how your servers are configured). Then you just configure Apache/IIS/whatever to respond to both domain names with the same content. It's not a router issue, it's a laziness/awareness issue. And enough people don't make the effort to get this right that it's always worth checking for the behavior you expect before passing along a truncated DNS name (ie, without the leading "www") and leading people to links that don't work. <div><br></div><div>Jeff/N0GQ</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Thu, Nov 22, 2018 at 7:59 PM Tony Ross <<a href="mailto:w7efs@centurylink.net">w7efs@centurylink.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

The OP's published link worked fine here. One wonders why people
haven't progressed beyond the 1990s "www" router limitations, so
after verifying the server's capabilities I use
