Client Status Client Name Shown

[SomeWhoCallMeTim]

Does anyone know if there is a way to set up one's own MAC Addr to name mapping to display in the Client Status table on the Network Map page in the RT-N66U? I notice that some rows display a computer name, some display a MAC address, and if you click on the link you can get additional information, manufacturer, etc.

I have a number of devices connected (10) and although I can certainly click on the link to get the pop-up, I was wondering if I could control the name that was being displayed in the table.

Nothing essential, but it would be a "delighter".

Any entry found on the DHCP reservation list will be used when populating the Client List (and will also be assigned as a hostname if the hostname is a valid one).

Thanks.

So would I need to assign manual IPs to those mac address in the LAN>DHCP Server tab in order to get the names I want, or is there some other location in the UI where I could tweak the DHCP reservation list, or is that something presented by the client when it requests the DHCP reservation?

It's all on the LAN -> DHCP Server page.
