Change connected device names
On my G5 Gateway all my iOS devices show up as Apple iPhone (iOS 15). I have not found a way to change the names via the mobile app or the webGUI. Is there a way to change this?

My iPhone, which has its own name and is on iOS 16.5, shows up as "Apple iPhone (iOS 15)", like the OP's. My Amazon Echo speakers, all of which have names, all show up as "Android." 🤨
Despite the quirks, I have been extremely pleased with the internet service. 😀
Found this on another thread. This is for Apple products only. In each device you need to select WiFi settings and then select the "i" icon next to your network name. Toggle OFF the Private Address switch. Your connection will reboot and then the next time you check your Devices, you'll see your device's name. Only do this with your private network of course. ;)
Thank you this worked perfectly
