Router nicknames

Question

Please see my screen shot. Does anyone know how to name these routers so on the Android Nighthawk app I can distinguish them from each other? If I click on one and then click on the image of the router I can see some information including the name I assigned it, but I wish I could see at a glance which one is offline without having to do an elimination process.

Um, unlessy your managing several same model routers which I presume you only have 1 model router, only 1 router should be seen in this list....

Android version 2.12.0.1770.I have these routers in my vacation homes and the houses are connected by point to point antennas. I live in a remote area with limited internet coverage, so I have to make my own network between houses.

Does the 3 vertical dots have any options?&nbsp;

The three vertical dots pulls up a menu and all that allows you to do is remove the device from your list

If you selecting on one of them and go in to the settings for the picked router, can you edit or change any with in?&nbsp;

I know on some routers there is the host name section seen on the routers web page. Wondering if maybe changing the host router name on the routers web page using a web browser first would maybe see a change on the NH app.&nbsp;
