How to Launch Vulnerability Scan?
As the title says, how can I launch a vulnerability scan with netgear armor on my NightHawk R7000P? There is nowhere in the menu to launch one and I have had it since launch and no scan has been perf...
I believe that the vulnerability scan won’t run against Windows PCs running bitdefender. The software on the router does run scans against other devices like AV receivers, streaming devices, security cameras etc. I found that a reboot of my router kicked off the vulnerability scan and afterwards it runs about every 7 days.
So it seemed the initial install didn’t reboot router and the reboot set the normal schedule in motion.
The scan definitely identifies problems on several devices which I have since patched. Also the product picks up malicious urls that any device tries to access.
I think for the price the product is useful and worth having.

Thank you for the feedback. I just tried a reboot through the Nighthawk app but don’t see anything yet. I will give it a day and then try a hard reboot. Thanks again.
