Device Names change to -- in device list r6700v3 when using Nighthawk App
Nighthawk r6700v3 (though I have seen this problem or similar no matter the model)
Firmware V1.0.3.66_10.0.50
Nighthawk App Version 2.2.9.495
Problem: Customized/Edited device names change ...
Have seen this the entire time I've owned my nighthawk router. It's ridiculous that it's never worked, and I always apply the upgrades. Doesn't instill a lot of confidence in their ability to write software. I tell my friends to stay away from Netgear. Won't buy again.

Good plan. Netgear seems to have lost their way when I comes to firmware. I would not recommend to even my enemy much less a friend. Hopefully management will wake up and do what is needed, which in my opinion is to fire and start over with the firmware engineers. Could not be any worse.
