Stock router DHCP question

[Marksfish]

Does the standard router allow you to name devices on the network? My Billion just logs the devices and some show the device name and others just random names. Can you also delete unused addresses? Again, the Billion hangs onto them and doesn't release them even when the lease time is expired by several days/ weeks (i.e. visitors devices) and the only way to clean up the list is to restart. Sorely missed feature of previous routers.

It doesn't look as though it will allow you to change the name against each connected device. Some of mine have the hostname (ie PC name and my mobile phone's name), but other devices are just showing as blank alongside the registered IP address.

With regards to your second question - It is only showing the devices that are currently connected, so I'm not sure if you can delete one that is no longer in use.

Hmmm, seems the old Thomson that I had, with the OR whitebox had its uses then
