Armor on Orbi questions (activation issues and another question)
Hey gang,
Just upgraded my Orbi to the latest firmware and, when I try to activate Armor, I keep getting the error message "Device is off-line" (see screenshot). What I've done so far: 1...
Tried it again and Armor activation from the Orbi app worked with no problems. Fully installed.
Update: I did what I said I didn’t want to do and factory reset my router.
Boom: Armor activated without issue. Now to test it with Circle enabled too.

So you reset the Orbi and Armour is now working?

Ok, Glad yours worked. I was asking to see if evil_mike reset his system.
Sounds like maybe the Armour system may have a delay in activation. Thanks for letting us know.
