OK… I 'm not sure now if it needs some time to show the changes, or that you have to edit a json file in the packetforwarder on your RPI

It’s surely cached: [How often is the description on the TTN gateway map updated?](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/forum/t/how-often-is-the-description-on-the-ttn-gateway-map-updated/20757/6)

But I don’t know if any description from a gateway’s JSON configuration takes precedence over the settings in TTN Console.
