I was trying to do it using the iOS app, going to the Network Map and then clicking on each satellite. Based on your question I logged in to orbilogin.com and succeeded. Thank you!
Now, not to be greedy, but I have another question: One on my three satellites is connected to the router via another satellite rather than directly, even though the two satellies are about equadistant from the router.

Thanks,
Tom
