Naming devices on Router, pass that name on to Satellite?

When I open up my router page in a web browser, under Attached Devices, it allows me to add information like DeviceModel, DeviceName, and DeviceType.  I can also pull up a list of connected devices that are connected to each Satellite by putting in the satellite IP and logging in.  But when looking at the satellites page, all the devices say UNKOWN under DeviceName.  Is there a way to have the info that is keyed in under the Router Attached Devices pass through and show up on the Satellite Device Name screen?

The only way this can happen is if Netgear fixes their damn firmware.  There is nothing the user can do.

Sorry.
