Dlink and long DHCP names

Nasty suprise today: Apple’s default computer name, is ass-sanely big, containing my full name and the model name of the computer. My dlink router (DI-624), apparently, has no bounds checking - even on the latest firmware. Plug in computer (or turn on wireless) and the router would suddenly reboot…

Anyone else having problems, try shortening your computer name (mac: System Preferences -> Sharing).
