Please see my screen shot. Does anyone know how to name these routers so on the Android Nighthawk app I can distinguish them from each other? If I click on one and then click on the image of the router I can see some information including the name I assigned it, but I wish I could see at a glance which one is offline without having to do an elimination process.
I have these routers in my vacation homes and the houses are connected by point to point antennas. I live in a remote area with limited internet coverage, so I have to make my own network between houses.
If you selecting on one of them and go in to the settings for the picked router, can you edit or change any with in?
I know on some routers there is the host name section seen on the routers web page. Wondering if maybe changing the host router name on the routers web page using a web browser first would maybe see a change on the NH app.
My Setup | ISP SparkLight | Internet Cable 1000↓/50↑ CAX80 Modem Mode | Wifi Router MK83+ (Router Mode) | and RBK853 (Router Mode) | Switches NG GS105/8, GS308v3, GS110MX and XS505M | Additional NG HW: C7800/CAX80/CM1100/CM1200/CM2000, Orbi: CBK40, CBK752, RBK50, RBK853, RBK752, RBK953, SXK30 | NightHawk: MK63, MR6150, R7000, R7800, R7960P, R8000, R8500, R9000, RAXE500, RAX50, XR450, XR700, XR1000, EX7500/EX7700
I have messed around in the settings for quite a while. I have never been able to find anything that transfers a name to the NH App overview screen. I know where to change the router names, but that name does not seem to transfer to that screen that I need.
Seems no one has an answer for this still. I have multiple RAX50s (not available in the dropdown - come on Netgear fix the list please) and they show up as RAX50 rather than the router name they have each been given in their specific configurations. This should be a simple chaneg to the app to have it show the router name rather than the model number -- or even both <AP Name> - <Model> i.e. Router at Home - RAX50.
