It would be great to have one more column in mac filter list - hostname column to increase usability.

I've been wanting this in the last few routers that I have owned. You put a MAC address in there, and once its in there it doesn't mean anything especially if name resolution fails (Android phones etc).

I'd really like a way of putting a column in there for "device name", but with the ability to manually set it.

If you set them up with static ip's you can insert a host name there if they don't have one.

Yes, this is what i mean. If static ip (and host name for ip) was defined for this mac - then show that name, else allow to define a name.

P.S: Lacking such feature for more than year, but only now
I have decided to fill feature request. It would be EXTREMELY usefull.

I'm confused Persumably you mean select names by hostname rather than IP. the hostname does get prefilled if one exists in the dhcp static ip area

** I just have a list of my addresses/mac addresses and host names in a notepad file to refer to.
