    Thanks for the reply. Yes 2 different ISPs. I use one for my computers and the other just for home smart devices.

    I actually solved the issue. I had a brain dump, I just needed to connect my iPad to the that SSID then when I open the app IT has the configuration for that router... duh! LOL :)

That works for local access. I thought you might be interested in managing these things from afar.

 

In my case, the two networks are far enough apart for me not to be able to connect by wifi. "Remote" does it.
