Rename MR90 in "Your Products"
Hi Everyone. I have a business and a home running Nighthawk Meshes. When I go to select those networks in the "Your Products" section of the Nighthawk App they are both named MR90. I would like to rename that MR90 to a specific name that will help me to distinguish them apart more easily. Is there a way to do that. The SSIDs are different but that does not show up when selecting them in the app. Only "MR90" and their serial numbers. Thank you for any help that you might give. I am attaching a screenshot to help.

Welcome to the "Grumpy Users Club". Although both the web management interface and the smartphone app allow users to assign unique names to individual routers, Netgear's smartphone apps do not appear to be capable of displaying this name when showing the systems available.
My guess is that the systems will consistently appear in the same sequence. i.e. if you open the smartphone app several times, the same system will be at the top of the list and the other system underneath it. Obviously, if the smartphone is actually connected to one of the systems, then it will appear with an option for "Local Connection Available"
(This has been an annoying peeve for longer than one would think possible.)
