I can confirm as well, after manually downloading the FW v2.5.1.8 files and applying them manually via web browser, no factory reset. changing device names is now working and sticking.
Be aware that NG has changed from using specific Icons, i.e. apple and android and IoT sepecific icons to more generic Icons. So ALL apple and android phones will get a generic Smart Phone icon. Same goes for pads and desktop or laptops. NG seem to be using a smaller amount of icons for devices regardless of Apple or Android or otherwise.
Device naming now seems fixed. Thank you NG. :smileywink:
