Change Extender Name as it appears in WiFi drop-down menu

Hello Tejanand
First you will need to find the ip address of each extender which you can find in the attached devices page on your routers GUI. After you get the Ip put that Ip number in your web browser hit enter and then a login box pops up use admin/password to log into it there you will be able to click the wireless settings and change the name.
