Hi All

Can you rename device's found on the attached device tab?

@michaelseal1 Normally it is the devices themselves that broadcast their make and model.

Thanks, On previous routers, i have been able to name the devices, as not all state who they are?

Like i use power lines, so i could name a particular one depending on where in the property it was .

This set up doesn't allow that?

You cant rename the devices directly on Sky hubs. It may be possible to do it on the Sky Max hub via the app control.

The Max Hub is the white one.

Ahh Thanks @TimmyBGood we have the Broadband hub.

Is the Broadband boost worth having or should I ask to be up graded for the Max hub?

Older solid wall property, we used to have an wifi extender with BT/EE
