I have the exact same issues on firmware 1.0.1.40. Just upgraded to 1.0.1.56 today. Attached devices labels don't work. Some stick around, some revert to default immediately, and most revert back to default over a period of time. I can only get maybe 20% of the labels to stick. Likewise, QOS settings sometimes revert.
I have not had any issues with wired devices, but I have endless problems with wireless devices. After a period of time (2-3 weeks), it's like DHCP just goes to crap. Devices can't/don't get addresses anymore (I use static reservations for my devices), and gradually all of my wifi devices drop offline until practically nothing in the house works. The only solution is to manually reboot the router. That fixes everything for a couple weeks. Wired devices work fine, it's something with wifi only.
Likewise, the only solution I've been given is reset the router and set everything up all over again.

Good luck, and be prepared Netgear will ask you for a factory reset as part as their support scripts. Same problem for several generations of Netgear routers - Nighthawk, Orbi, now Nighthawk AX, ... figure. ChristineT Christian_R Altsai how comes Netgear does ignore the community users that baldy - for years?
