You can disable Armor in the Orbi app under Settings/Security/

Not if the subscription ran out... then you only get the page to make a new subscription. Thats the problem.

Ok, have you powered OFF the RBR then back ON? if the sub expired then this should disable armor on the system.
Might try a factory reset of the system and then setup from scratch with a ethernet connected PC and not the Orbi app.
This would clear out any Armor features left behind.

On/Off doesnt help, had a power outage yesterday, so I am pretty sure..
And yes, a factory reset should help, but this can at least be seen as bug report.
