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 ...
Great to see that Netgear fix their problems........
What the F. this is a post from 2019, I even found posts with the same issue from 2018.
Yet here I am searching for a solution for this renaming issue thing in 2022.
Note: using the latest firmware and nighthawk app on R8000p nighthawk router.

My solution was to change to a different manufacturer and have all my business clients change as well. Support never gave a solution, 4 different appointments to call me and connect to my PC so they can see what it is doing but they never confirmed a date and time via email, it just got passed to another tech. Tried getting their attention by posting screenshots of my issue and my contact info on the Nighthawk FaceBook page and all they did is block me. I even wrote a snailmail letter and no response.
What is sad is that I have been a Netgear Customer since 2007 and anytime my customers needed a switch, router, etc. I recommended Netgear.
Hope you find a solution. Sorry I could not be more help.
