Netgear Armor blocking a site but doesn't show URL to allow unblocking
I use PumpSpy to monitor my sump pumps and have never had a problem with receiving messages through my wireless network (PumpSpy only communicates to an associated app through the wireless network, n...
Okay, so that seems to have worked. I went to the Netgear Armor page on the web and did as you said. In the notification window, I clicked on the unblock. Then I went to the app and turned off the Armor protection. Reconnected my pumpspy to the network. I decided to put it on my guest network, since it was sending unencrypted data. I'm doubtful if that would cause me issues, but at any rate, I feel safer... Then I turned back on the Armor in the app, and it now seems to be connected without the annoying notifications every 15s. Hopefully, this does the trick and it stays like this. Thank you for all your help on this. It was very frustrating!
Also it may show ones you turn back on again armor might have another notification that it block pump spy just unblock the new url.

- Thank you. That worked! Hopefully it won’t break the PumpSpy connection again. Thanks for your help!
Well, after about 8 hours or so, the issue has returned. I think we are going ot need Netgear support on this one. It seems the A.I. is blocking the communication and there is no URL to allow.
- Sorry to hear about it but mine is still connected.
- Unfortunately this seems like a temporary fix. The pump spy loses connection after about 8 hours and you have to repeat the steps.
- It been working for me so far. On the 3rd day and it is still connected. But than if I can go back in time I would have never purchase this overprice unreliable router.
