RBR50-can’t disable Armor
Cannot disable the Armor. When you toggle the switch in the app, it does not turn the security off.

Hello Trivtush - May you provide us with a screenshot of the app when tapping on the toggle.
Thanks,

I don't see a toggle or any way to disable on my Orbi app, or in my Orbi router administration pages.
please help.

Hi Ngearvictim,
Please refer to the article below to disable Armor using the Orbi app. You may need to update to the latest version of the Orbi app which can be done by reinstalling the app.

I have tried to figure out how to disable Armor, I can't find it. I have the RB50 router and satellites. i connect directly to the app and in it, I click on security <nothing happens> I try to click on advance/security and can't find a disable for Armor.
I have searched other links within netgear - nothing.
And I find a disable via the mobile app either. I did take pictures but sadly every time I upload <chrome or edge> the process locks up and becomes unresponsive. I don't want Armor it's frankly not worth it. I thought it would protect the router from being DDoS attacked with an ips/ids so that my system won't keep faulting but that's not it's purpose and I already am protected on my devices from spam/antiv/maleware.
help please.
