Asus RT N56U Clients List

[#1]

Hi All,
Hope someone can help, when i click into routers client list, this shows 6 clients connected, with both my sons and daughters iphone  this will show as there names, but on my two android phones this shows as android-d0775 etc..., is there any way this can be changed to show names of the person?, ive tried on router page, but wont allow me, two android phones are Galaxy S3, and Experia SP, any help would be appreciated

Hi
This is set by the devices themselves rather than the router. Here's a guide (but do it at your own risk!):

1. You're device must be rooted. 2. You must have Root Explorer (or similar file explorer that can view system folders). 3. Open Root Explorer. 4. Browse to /system click Mount R/W it will change to Mount R/O. 5. Select build.prop and add at the end of the codes add net.hostname="your desired device name" (without the quotes). 6. Save and exit.
