Orbi mesh network

How can we have multiple Netgear accounts or multiple logins with the same acct info sign into our home network. With the orbi satellites we (my wife and I) want to both be able to see which satellite we are currently connected to. It keeps forcing me as the second to log in to enter the password for the Admin acct. Thoughts?

    You can only use one account or Admin account and pw for the Orbi system log in to its web page.

      Can we each log into the orbi app at the same time from separate devices with the same account information?

        Only one at a time.  When the next login is attempted, the Orbi will ask if you want the first disconnected.  Sorry.
