HI Guys,
Wondering if anyone is able to help or has seen this before. I have a couple of devices on my network which has generic names for the devices. Does anyone know how to pull this data into the dashboard or if this is an issue with a particular version of the Android code?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Pete
Solved! Go to solution.

This is a common thing, you can manually renamed each device. Has the hostname been changed on each of the devices themselves?
I'm not sure if all of the devices have been renamed, but I know that mine has been. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and have re-named it to "Remote Detonator" - however this is still seen as "Android"
Correct, it is only Android devices that do not pull a hostname. I'm feeling that manually changing each name may be the quickest option in this case as it only a handful of devices.
However, on a large scale deployment of Android clients; this is not a feasible option.
I have asked Meraki support the question but I feel I won't get the outcome I require.
