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 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.
