I apologize for this is the only time I got back on this. Here are my follow-up questions:
a. Is the WINS server configured to the client on the FVS318N side also?
b. Can you confirm if NetBIOS does resolve between clients (such as PCs) on the same LAN? For example: PC1 to PC2 within the FVS318N LAN or PC1 to PC2 within the SRX5308 LAN.

No problem, struggeling almost a mounth or 2 with this isue.
a. Yes, IP's are manual added to the wins server and seen as active.
b. Yes, both sides netbios works fine on all devices.
Maybe helps this: When i'm at work and i make a PPTP connection to SRX5308 with my phone (connected at the WiFi of the FVS318N) than all works fine, but only on my phone. When i use my laptop on PPTP dito.

Nevermind this isue.

Have you tried to perform a factory reset on the FVS318N? If yes and still the test LED is lit up, I suggest you to open a chat / online case with NETGEAR Support. Let them know what happened to your FVS318N. Attach a .pdf or .doc copy of the Proof of Purchase or Sales Invoice of the FVS318N on the online case for warranty verification. If ever the hardware warranty is still valid, an online replacement will follow.
