Netgear Armor seems to have no "User Manual"

We've purchased the Armor system for our Orbi with rbr750's , but cannot find a guide to using it. Basically everything is marketing material listing what it can do, but not how to do it.  Ex: says to load Bitdefender onto the router, but doesn't say how.  Ex: says can load virus scanning sw onto iOS devices, but doesn't say how to do so. Ex: my Thunderbird cannot connect to email after starting the Netgear VPN, what do other than not use the VPN? Are there any VPN settings like with most VPNs? The Orbi app has very, very little other than stats on Armor.

 

Anyone know where I can find this info?  Searched the Netgear site and have found no useful How To's after How to Buy. A full User Manual to look through would be perfect.

 

Thanks,

Robert

      Thanks!  That helps a bit.

      I know manuals are a thing of the past. That said, their engineers put all of the work into the product and most of those features don't get used. Its too bad, really. I guess when AI are writing all of the software and the engineers are managing the little AIs, we don't have to feel bad for them anymore?

      Cheers.
