Where are you doing this?
after i login to the router via a direct wire. i goto attached devices and i select the device and change the name and hit apply. it comes back with the same name it was before. i even clicked on 'access control' and it gives a list of devices attached. i do the same thing here and the same results. i've rebooted. i have no FW upgrade. it seems a hit and miss but most of the time, it doesnt work.
