I'm having the same issue. Sadly, I just purchased the Armor. Ever since it has been activated I've been having problems with Internet connectivity.

Hard to believe they have not addressed this problem since this thread is already 2 years old. If they have a problem like this it makes me wonder how effective their software is.
