Unable to change all network names for my tri-band router

Unable to change all network names for my tri-band router

It started out with three default network names:

 

NETGEAR95

NETGEAR95-5G-1

NETGEAR95-5G-2

 

The NETGEAR95 is for the 2.4.  No matter what I do, there is no way for me to modify the name of NETGEAR95-5G-1.  When I log on to the Netgear Genie via the desktop app or the mobile app when logged on to any one of the three networks, I am only able to modify the names of NETGEAR95 and NETGEAR95-5G-2.  It is seriously annoying.

 

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

The web interface had it.  Thank you.  I no longer need assistance.

You could try the web interface. The genies aren't always the best ways to manage a device.

I tried the web interface, routerlogin.net, as well.

Hi deepspace9,

 

You should be able to change the name using the web UI. 

 

If you are getting issues with it, please post the screenshot here.
