In my android mobile app, on the Your Products screen, it shows two networks each with the exact same name - RBR20.
How can I rename the networks so I can tell which property I am selecting?
What a mess! I saw a post a long time ago about how to add a second system to one account, but remember none of the details.
My guess is that you will get a much more informed response if you post in the forum devoted to the Orbi "app":

My sense is that most of the people who participate in this forum use the web interface. I, myself, only open the "app" when someone asks a question about it. I just did and saw what you reported. My Orbi has a "name" different from RBR50, but it appears on the app as "RBR50". Geez.
Thanks for the tip. I wound up in this forum by accident. I just reposted in the App forum.

If somebody comes up with "how to do this", please come back and update this post. I would have thought this was an "obvious need" that should be almost trivial to accomplish.
