Change Name of Station in DAX and CAT and Connecting via Smartlink

When I look at SDR CAT and DAX they both show the name of the station as an older PC that I took out of service. Is there a way to change the name to reflect the name of the current PC or does it matter? I am running ver 2.7.6. I noticed when I went to Settings in SDR and "Choose Radio / Smartlink Setup" it shows the radio is available and when I select Smartlink Setup and it shows SmartLink is configured, however when I try to initiate connection to smartlink from my iPad it eventually tells me "No response from Smartlink Server". On the iPad it shows SmartLink is there, Internet connected - yes, Status - available, and Smartlink - yes. The ipad is on the local network and the same with the Flex. If I set the ipad to connection type local I can access the radio. I wonder if this means I have to have an external ip address in order to work.

    Smartlink is only used on remote (not the same lan) connections. For operating on the same lan, just connect.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
