Log off ORBI App
I’m intending to install several ORBI 6 systems in multiple locations. I haven’t seen a way to logo of the Orbi App on my iPhone so that I may log in as a different user via Connect Anywhere. How do you log off the App?

You can link each device to the account you use for Anywhere access. Then just switch between them within the app.
At least, that is how I do things in Android.
How do I enable or disable Anywhere Access on my Orbi router? | Answer | NETGEAR Support
- I’ll be installing Orbi’s at multiple clients. Each client will have a different user/password created at setup. Don’t see how this would work as you described. Thank you.
Read the details I provided.
You have to set up Remote Management (Anywhere Access) on the routers. All of them.
When you have done that you are using an intermediary to "tunnel into" the router. You don't feed it a password for the router. You use a password for the tunnel and that then provides you with a list of routers that you can access.
Of course, this depends on being able to use the same email address and access details for all of the Orbi devices you want to control.
The clue is in the name Remote Management. (Heaven only knows why they changed the name.) Remote means from a distance. Do you can get at several devices down the same tunnel.
Try it.
- Olani_98AspirantOld thread but I figured it out. You have to delete the app off your phone, then reinstall it.
