I had the same issue when I thought I had removed Armor but apparnetly I had not. I figured I'd need a new router soon anyway, so I bought a replacement RBR50 and it set up fine. Then it dropped internet again. I did a factory reset and have not yet added Armor back in (I had purchased a year subscription). I have also had no internet drops. I want to add Armor back in but am a bit gunshy given the experience of the past week. I will likely do so soon, but am interested if I am the only one experiencing the internet drops with streaming or otherwise. Thanks.
