Luci > System > System.> General Settings - is that what you’re looking for?

Thanks for your answer. Thats was i am looking for.

I changed the the “Hostname” on Luci > System > System.> General Settings
And I can see the new “Hotname” on http://192.168.8.1/cgi-bin/luci/admin/status/overview
A, I see on my DSL router still the old “Hostname” of my gl.inet router,. Thats why i am not shure, it realy the right place to change the hostname
It can be, they are like a DNS cache, a “Hostname” cache, which need to delete if I dont like to wait for refresh by self after lease time ?

Now i have found two additional other places, which sounds like “Changing hostname”. I dont know what the different. Now I will check the follow:

http://192.168.8.1/cgi-bin/luci/admin/network/network/wan , its a candidate for changing hostname too (Hostname to send when requesting DHCP) I GUESS, THAT WILL WORK.

Yes, this is the correct place for hostname reported via DHCP to upstream routers.

Change hostname via cli

alzhao It is correct?

Actually I don’t know if this is correct. Seems dnsmasq has other settings about hostname.
