RBR850 v4.6.7.13 upgrade lost names of connected devices (Orbi AX6000)
Upgraded firmware to v4.6.7.13 today. I noticed that all the device names are missing...replaced by "N/A". Will the device names eventually come back or do I have to go in and manually set the Device names again? Is this going to happen each time the firmware is upgraded?

Literally "N/A" (not "Unknown")? And, this is on the router, not the satellite?
or.... is this on the Orbi 'app'?

have you tried a reboot?
Or a factory reset? (shouldn't need one but can sometimes fix errors/be beneficial)

Thanks for asking if this was on the router or the Orbi app. After reading your reply, I logged into the router via my laptop and the device names are there. The Orbi app is on my iPhone 12 Pro Max and is where I see "N/A" instead of the name of the device. And, the app shows N/A not unknown. The device names used to show in the app. In the Orbi app, the device details show the MAC so I can figure out what name to enter for each device--just miffed that I will need to do that.

I'd give them some time to come back. The 'app' does Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) calls to the router to retrieve information.
