two Orbi RBK 50 at two different locations

I have two houses which are located 200 miles from each other. In one house I use the Orbi with great satisfaction and I decided to buy one for the other address.

But I have one app and one web based dashboard. 

 

Is there a way to use one account and one app for both Orbi's?

    I believe this question has been answered in the forum for the Orbi "app":

    I believe when you click on the Home Icon (picture of tiny house in upper left corner) there is an option for "New Setup" which allows you to add another system.  Probably need to activate "Remote Management" on both systems.  I have not done this myself, so it might be prudent to check that other forum for detailed instructions.

      Thanks for your quick response! I did find several questions about the same issue but without answers. I will try your suggestion about a "new setup" on the same account or otherwise I will try a setup on a new account. I think it will work both cases when I put "house A" on the app on my Iphone and "house B" on the app of my Ipad.
