Hub Mesh and Accounts

;TLDR;
Do 2 hubs have to be on the same account to mesh?
How do I move my old hub to my Grandfather's account?

Long version
I've been using a Hubitat-C7 for a while now. I was recently asked to setup some automation at Grandpa's house. I bought a C8 and took it there but unfortunately the main thing to remote is in a secondary building and I couldn't get a signal over there. Memorial Day (in about a month) I'm going back over there and am going to extend the home network (think wifi) to the 2nd building (I got this covered). Once I've done that I'm thinking of putting one hub in each building and if that works as I hope it does that will be how I get what he wants. (Plan B is some Wi-Fi switches in the 2nd building but I would prefer to not do that.)

Since it wasn't working for him as it was, I brought the hub I bought for him home. I connected it to my network and I'm trying to setup the Hub Mesh between it and my original C7 to try out the mesh stuff (before installing it at his place multiple hours away). The two hubs don't want to talk to each other, is this because they are associated with different accounts? If so I need to move his hub to my account for now. If this works the way I hope my plan will be to buy a new C8 to upgrade my stuff and repurpose my C7 to his 2nd building so I'll need to move devices between accounts then.

What I did to try and get hub mesh working...
I logged into both hubs and Settings-Hub Mesh and clicked enable under "Active Hubs"
I them rebooted both hubs. (I have since also power cycled both devices.)
Going back to Settings-Hub Mesh, no devices are listed under "Active Hubs"
In my C7 I enabled one device for mesh and it shows under Local Devices as "shared" but does not show up on the other hub as "Linked".

I'm kind of out of ideas at this point so any and all help will be appreciated.

Do you have "Hub Login Security" enabled? If so, read the following section from Hub Mesh | Hubitat Documentation

Are both hubs fully updated and running the same version of Hubitat platform software?

Are both hubs in the same VLAN?

Neither hub has Login Security
I'm also not even seeing the hub listed in "Active Hubs" so I wouldn't even have the ! icon if I did.

Both hubs are running 2.3.5.125

Yes both hubs are on the same VLAN. I also logged into the local html portal on both hubs via IP address from a single computer.

Nobody have any ideas?

I found the network diagnostics window and was able to have each hub ping the other so that further confirm they should be able to talk to each other.
