AX4200 Thoughts
I know this unit is new since it's not even in the drop down but , anyway, I have been using the AX4200 for 2 days and tried to just keep what I could from my old RBR50 setup (This is the RBR750 btw)...

Did you download and install the Armor app separately on your mobile devices?

I did install the iOS version. It asked for my account with Netgear and a password and it enabled armor on the app. But I never signed up and there was no notice or popup about armor at all on the Orbi app during setup. I only saw a reference on the web GUI but it's gone now. I guess I'll find out in thirty days.

Interesting. Well I can only guess that if your Orbi is reg'd with your account with NG then Armor is probably getting tied to it there.

I think so,I no have indication other than it's working. No security tab on the app,web GUI, can't tell what's going on.

Hmmm, you might contact NG support and ask about this. From what one user said already, they reported that the FW didn't include any Armor as of yet and would be in a forth coming update. :smileyfrustrated:
