For your RBK50 (RBR50 and RBS50), upgrade your firmware to v2.5.1.8, as it corrects the device naming issue seen with the v2.5.0.x firmware. Login to your router, and check for new firmware (Click Advanced tab and navigate to Adminstration -> Firmware Update). If the v2.5.1.8 does not appear there, then you can download it manually from https://www.netgear.com/support/product/RBK50.aspx#download

I have an orbi RBK50. Up until the last update I had all of my devices named perfectly under the device list. After the last update the names all got reset to messy unidentifiable names. I renamed all of them (over 50) and closed the app. I went back in and nothing was saved. I can’t correct the names of my devices. This is terrible!!!!! PLEASE FIX THIS. PLEASE!!

Thank you for you fast response. I am running v2.5.0.38. When I look for an update it says “no new firmware version available” I logged in via my phone and a laptop and got the same message.
