is there a way to get deviceTypeName

Newbe here

I see you can get the device s/n by GetDeviceESN()

Is there a function to get deviceTypeName - i.e Roku with USB vs Roku without USB
also - is there a way to query for deviceSoftwareVersion ?

I'm looking to have access to this so we will know what the customer has when they
call in with an issue (read this - they found a BUG in MY application)

It would also help to know it it's a ROKU box or a NETGEAR version of the box.

Thanks very much for any assistance. 😄

Re: is there a way to get deviceTypeName

Take a look at roDeviceInfo, section 4.17 of the Component Reference. GetModel(), GetVersion(), and HasFeature() can probably accomplish all the things you mentioned.
