RBR50 has not "security" tile in the app
I keep getting notifications to use the NETGEAR Armour features, and to locate the "Security" tile in the Orbi app. But, the app has several tiles ("network map," "device manager," "internet speed,"...

Something is wrong with your app. On my Orbi app for Android, there is a picture of the orbi at the top and four pictures below:
- Device Manager
- Internet Speed
- Parental Controls
- Security
When I select "Security", it opens a page telling me that the router is registered (to me) and asking me to login to "manage NETGEAR ARMOR". Since I have no interest in Armor, I have not done so.

Yes, I thought of that. I might be a novice at Netgear, but .................. :)

Is your Orbi in "router" or "access point" (AP) mode?
In AP mode, things like Security do not seem to apply.

A-HA! That's it. Thank you very much.
This has been driving me nuts. There is no discussion of that in any of the instructions.
Thanks for figuring it out!
