Logging onto roll20 with a mobile and computer

Is it possible to log into a campaign on both a mobile phone and my regular computer?
Yes, you can technically login to the same game on both mobile and computer at the same time. I expect it's not 'officially' supported, so weirdness may crop up.

Interestingly, Riley the lead developer has posted his idea-proposal for improving the way it works when you use 2 devices at once. See suggestions forum link to the post: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1239607/implemen" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1239607/implemen</a>...
Cool, I just want to be able to use my phone's personal bandwidth to hear my player's chatter, while conserving my home bandwidth.

I see your purpose. I offload the audio to another device too. But in my group we use Skype for audio (and I run the Skype on my tablet or phone), so I tend to use Roll20 with audio-video turned OFF, on the computer.
Skype is just such a major CPU Hog I try to avoid using Skype whenever possible.
Devlin, if you're using Roll20 chat for voice/video you're going to run into issues with that on a mobile device. The Mobile browsers don't generally support the in-game audio.
I did have an issue but a worse one, never got to look for the audio. When I logged on the phone it erased the turn order. So I had to give up that option. Oh well.
You might want to try Oovoo if you don't like Skype (and I think they have a mobile app). However, in personal experience Skype seems to be the best choice currently of audio/video chat clients, including Google Hangouts, although of course YMMV.
