Can't use Armor in AP Mode
I have a Orbi RBK23 system running in AP mode. I'm unable to access the Security Tab or enable Armor/Bitdefender on it when it is in the AP mode. How can I run Armor on an Orbi when in AP mode? ...

Seems a little short sighted to me. Why can't Netgear allow Armor work in AP mode?

because it ap mode, the primary router is doing all the routing/dhcp/nat/etc.
ap mode disables a lot of features and leaves the primary router running them
