After you change the name, the Gateway Pro uses it everywhere.

The updated name also appears automatically in **Aranet Cloud**.

If you leave the field empty, the Gateway Pro uses the default name: **Aranet Gateway Pro + last 6 digits of the serial number**.

### Firmware

Use **Firmware** to check for updates and review what changed.

See [Updating the Firmware](/gateway/gateway-pro/gateway-pro-configuration/updating-the-firmware.md) for the full flow.

You can also check [Gateway Pro's Firmware Change Log](/gateway/gateway-pro/firmware-and-hardware/gateway-pros-firmware-change-log.md).

### Time & date

### About device

<figure><img src="/files/3sBtDZB7zq6B805DheXL" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Use **About device** to view detailed Gateway Pro information.

**Uptime** shows how long the device has been running. This helps spot power interruptions.

You can also see the **serial number**, **product code**, **hardware version**, and **region**.

### Factory reset

<figure><img src="/files/vcq5N5RXDZFn3K8cjj7l" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="warning" %}
**FACTORY RESET** -  a procedure that restores the device to its original factory settings by permanently removing all user data, configurations, and stored information. This option is useful when the device needs to be completely cleared before transfer, disposal, troubleshooting, or when there is a requirement to remove all data, including private and sensitive information.
{% endhint %}

Use **Factory reset** to restore the Gateway Pro to default settings.

Press **Factory reset**. Then confirm.

If the Gateway Pro display is unresponsive, use a manual reset.

See [Factory Resetting Gateway Pro](/gateway/gateway-pro/troubleshooting/factory-resetting-gateway-pro-deleting-user-data.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.aranet.com/gateway/gateway-pro/gateway-pro-configuration/general-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
