Model: Archer C20

Hardware Version: V5

Firmware Version: Archer C20 v5 00000005

I would *really*, REALLY like to add descriptive names in the MAC-centric DHCP address reservation list.

Please consider this an official feature request.

Interesting. I looked the the emulator for the router and I can't see a way to do it either?

I've got an A20 that I can do it 2 ways.

Using the Wired and Wireless Client selection on the main page Basic Network Map.
Using Tether via my phone and select Clients at the bottom.

It is possible you could do it via Tether? Have your tried Tether? According the the Tether Compatibility list the C20 is supported? Agreed it is not the best, but it should work?

I'm not familiar with "Tether". What is it?

I have started experimenting with the JavaScript used by the C20 in conjunction with TamperMonkey. I've added a "Name" column to the Address reservation list. I'll have to figure out where/how to store the "Name" info in the existing data structure(s). Also need to implement the "edit" functionality.
