So far most of my experience using the product with a Orbi 50 with 2 satellites has been mixed. I put the program onto one Android and one PC. I found I had some very basic problems, the program tries to download and get me to install an update to flash player for IE, not surprisingly windows update isn’t interested. It also identified a Outlook archive.pst file as safe to delete.
Bitdefender have said 2 of the issues have now been addressed by updates to the program, but is Netgear Armor just using an old version of Bitdefender? As my Netgear version is 24 and the current Bitdefender with the fix’s is 25. If so how many other fix’s are missing from the Netgear version?

NOTE: If you don’t have the above build number, keep in mind that product updates are delivered in stages and the live build might not have reached your PC yet. Once the product update reaches 100%, it is automatically downloaded and installed. Then, Bitdefender will request a Windows restart.

Needless to say, the Bitdefender stuff (like the network vulnerability scanner) were specifically built and maintained for the Netgear routers.
Online and offline updates are the very same:
