What modem/gateway are you connected to?
Waht I'd try doing? Anytime there's an issue after a firmware upgrade, a reasonable first step is to factory reset. Sometimes old settings can cause issues. If that doesn't help, try re-installing the firmware to the router over a hardwired connection. When we see corrupt firmware issues, it tends to be when people updated over wifi or using the app.

OK, I will try a reset, which makes sense.
Our modem is a Windstream Actiontec 3200, which is in bridge mode. We are in a rural area, so we are lucky if we get 10 Mb. I am wondering if Armor is simply adding more drag on our speed.
