Deactivate ARMOR trial completely from ORBI APP

May 28, 2020: Here is what works

1. Upper left corner of iPhone press home symbol in circle on ORBI APP

2. Menu opens, select security

3. Slide Netgear Armor Enable slider to disable position.

4. Back to main menu select setup router and click reboot at bottom of page

5. After you've lost internet and everything, remove power from ORBI and your modem.

6. Reconnect modem power, and ORBI power

7. Everything should come back up with internet enabled and ARMOR inactive.

Good luck. Nothing seems to work as it could with Netgear. You have to figure it out.

  • Thanks for this.  How disruptive.  I have to reboot my entire network to remove a trial feature.  Ugh.
