Model: Archer AX6000  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.6 Build 20190822 re.26396(5553)

Can someone point me to the location to rename the "network" (or DNS suffix) of the Archer AX6000? It appears to be that of the default SSID, but I'd much prefer having it something else/different...while I can certainly go into Windows 10 network properties and rename it via local policy, that's too cumbersome for the numerous devices on the network.

 

I am a recent convert (from ASUS, and before that, Netgear) -- both provide the ability to name your LAN whatever you want In the LAN settings) -- maybe TP-LINK doesn't allow for this, but I'm thinking maybe I'm not looking in the right place.

 

Help?

@Tony I checked the location you suggested and found I already "changed" this, still no dice. To clarify what I'm looking for, here's a screenshot from the ASUS router I'm coming from:

 

 

Maybe it's not currently possible to do/use this...if not, how do I go about requesting this feature?

Ya, it does not look like it is a available feature. 

 

I can forward the feature request for consideration.
