Everything Instant On

InstantOn Team,

I can't remember what firmware version gave us the ability to modify the client names but it was a good addition and I used it on all my clients that didn't give a "hostname" on their own where shown as the device MAC for the client name. Recently I had a few clients get a firmware upgrade and now, instead of not giving a hostname like before, they do give a hostname based on the user defined internal device name. Now I would like to reset the custom client name I entered for those devices and have it dynamically use the hostname for the client name, as it did, before I gave it a custom client name. I don't see an option to clear or reset the client name. Is there any way to reset this? If not, could it be added as a future feature/function?

Thanks,
Scott.

There is not an option to clear or reset MAC to name you may be able to open a support case and see if they can assist in clearing this for you.
