Change Network Name

How do I change the network name of the My Cloud Home device? Regardless of what name I set in WD Discovery, it persists in advertising two ugly, irrelevant, unhelpful serialized names to users, including one for Windows which I don’t use or want.

Somebody, please… Make it stop. I don’t need this obscure gibberish being broadcast to users. It’s sloppy and confusing.

Hi,

Please refer to the following KBA: My Cloud Home: Rename Device

The OP was specifically asking how to change the “network name”. I’m afraid the 2 answers above missed that.
