ASUS RT-N66R Firmware 378.55 Client listing changes

[JohnT]

Is there a way to change the client name that is shown in the connected devices list. I want to have a name that is more meaningful, such as John's Main PC, as opposed to numbers or names shown.

Thank you,
John

in my case i may have more than one of same devices in different places of my home. by giving it a more meaningful name i can troubleshoot issues better
