Hello
Same problem as everyone else.
Yesterday I bought the license for Armor.
I see it activate on armor.netgear.com website and I see also all my orbi connected devices on that website with those that I have Bitdefender scan application....,on the other hand orbi app still shows Expired for the security and the rbr20 configuration web page show “not activated”. I contacted Bitdefender support via third chat and support ticket 2020042610510001 opened.
Funny thing is you buy a new service from Netgear and when you try to open Netgear support ticket it is telling you your one year support is expired. I don’t understand how comes I buy service worth of 70$ and when I have a problem I need to write post in the community.
