Unable to unblock URL

Starting this week, the Armor Security started blocking http://links.a.signalkit.com/ls/click which my son's school uses to send us flyers.  I went to the app on Android to try and unblock it, but I got a generic error "something went wrong" and the site stayed blocked.  I then proceeded to updated the app on my phone, restarted the Router and phone several times, and eventually get stuck where the app on the phone app times out trying to log in.  It tells me to "restart my device if this keeps happening."

 

Now I'm stuck.  I can't administer the Armour URL blocking as there is no override when using the web interface, the web admin app at http://routerlogin.net/ does not allow administration of Armour Security, and the phone app can't login.  The handful of times I was able to login on the phone and get to the unblock page, I always get the "something went wrong" notice.

 

What can I do to resolve this?

 

Router firmware: V1.4.1.68_1.3.28 

NIghthawk Android App: v2.8.5.1416

    Hi Javier,

     

    May you provide a screenshot of the error that appears when you attempt to log into the Nighthawk app. May you also try reinstalling the Nighthawk app. 


    Thanks,

    Christian

      I forget to mention in the post that I actually uninstalled, then re-installed the Nighthawk App on my phone.  Here are the screen shots from my phone.

      Disable NETGEAR Armor and get yourself decent VPN app such as NordVPN and be done with Netgear Armor.
