Model: Archer AX21  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.3.1

With no ability to edit the device name for statically assigned addresses, we are stuck with whatever the device get's identified, and may end up with a list of non-descriptive names or even repeat "unknown" entries, which is a pain and makes security management more difficult.

Are you referring to the settings for the Address Reservation? If there is no setting menu on the router web or Tether app for the devices connected to the network to add a description, then I guess it doesn't support it.


This will be recorded in the system, and we will remind the developers to consider optimizing it in future firmware releases.

Yes, when setting static IP / address reservation, through the WEB GUI. I don't use the app (and won't be).
