I am curious to know if anyone uses Armor with this device? Are there any known issues by activating Armor and using the router's features? I know I initially had a paid subscription with my XR1000 about two-three firmware versions prior to the one listed here and I remember having issues with the device messing up to where I needed to factory reset it several times between several months of using it. I ended up disabling it and canceling my subscription to Armor becasue I wasn't sure if this was the cause. The problems eventually went away, but I do not know if it was a firmware update that resolved it or if it was because I stopped using Armor.
I want to know if any others have encountered issues with this service while using their device at any point.

What were the issues you were having exactly? Then we can determine whether Armor may have been the cause.

Hey there! The router would give me errors when trying to login. I would get some UI loading problems, which I do not remember, and I would have to factory reset my router every so often. It has been a while since I had that problem. I was just curious about Armor because I was thinking of giving it another try and did not want to spend the money if it was buggy, or others were having issues with it of some sort.
