I can't believe that Alro does not think this is a security risk - even if it isnt one on the IT side, you may as well put up a billboard announcing to the world that you have security cameras. Why cant they at least change it so I can change the name of the network to something inconspicuous like a random string of numbers? Minially, I want to declutter my networks lists that pop up on devices. This is SUCH a bad design

It's trivial to get the base SSID even if hidden. Are you going to ask your neighbors to hide theirs, too, to help declutter the list? It's truly a non-issue.
