Hi,
This is a pretty safe change. The first time through, I got the syntax of the device type table.json file wrong (misplaced that "," at the end of the second-last line. All that happened was that the "attached devices" page didn't render correctly. but everything else was working fine. I didn't have to reboot the router - just refresh the page.
There's no programming required, and no new software to install on the router.
On windows 10, you may have to enable incoming SSH for the scp command to copy the icon files up tp the router.... https://winscp.net/eng/docs/guide_windows_openssh_server
You'll also have to enableWindows 10 telnet (I think it's off by default)..... https://www.rootusers.com/how-to-enable-the-telnet-client-in-windows-10
You'll have to use vi or vim to edit the json file, and have a Winows 10 login and password for the scp command.
I'm happy to help.
