Monitoring multiple Orbi networks
I monitor multiple Orbi networks with the iPhone app, one local and one remote. When I get an alert, it’s not always obvious which network it came from. It would be very helpful if the router hostname were displayed on the app’s main screen and in alerts and reports that are sent to the app.
Does anyone else think this would be useful?

Re: Monitoring multiple Orbi networks
I do something similar. I ensure that each network has a different name.
I can even manage two routers in one network, an AP and router.

Re: Monitoring multiple Orbi networks
The router names are different, but that doesn’t help if the name is not displayed (main screen, alerts). I can tell which network I am looking at on the main screen because the local network has 1 satellite and the remote has 2. But when looking at an alert or report, there’s no indication of which network it is. At a minimum have to go to the menu to see, which is okay for the main screen, but inconvenient (and potentially confusing) elsewhere.
