How do I remove this garbage from my router?
Updated to the latest Orbi firmware and enabled the trial of armour.
Today the router is blocking my access to legitimate websites falsly claiming they are phishing sites.
I canot see any...
Armor crap as I understand and Net gear BS. I’ve had problems before DONT PAY FOR THEIR BS TECH SERVICES. When I did an upgrade of firmware before I could not use my remote access after the update anymore. After paying the 50 bucks for three months tech service talking to them for over a week and probably literally 17 different technicians and even being transferred to the same ones because I started writing names down. The answer to the solution was go back to the last version of software before the update.
This was Net Gears solution to the problem. The reason was not everything will work correctly in firmware upgrades I was told. After talking to 3 managers about a credit for their firmware update being the problem then telling them I’ll call my CC company and have them deal with the issue Net Gear finally gave me the credit.
Going forward I now always keep downloaded the firmware version that works do the upgrade then if something doesn’t work I go back to the prior versions. You can download then still from Net-gears website. Then I wait for the bugs to be fixed before I upgrade again.
Good luck all hope this helps.
