Enable Ad blocking in Armor Plus

Question

I just got the RS700 a couple days ago and upgraded to Armor Plus today. Does anyone know how to enable the ad blocking?&nbsp; I don't see anything in the Nighthawk app to enable it.&nbsp;

Meant to say adblocking in title. Can't fix it.&nbsp;

You can toggle Ad Blocker under the VPN section of the NETGEAR Armor or on the separate NETGEAR VPN app.

That option isn't available anywhere in the Nighthawk app for the router , that's why I was asking how to enable it for the network.&nbsp;

Yes, where to enable it with in Nighthawk app or in the router settings? Why does Netgear not have a toggle in the Nighthawk app to enable it?&nbsp;

Richardj1864 · Answer

Exactly. No where in the description for Netgear Armor Plus nor the Armor Plus FAQ does it state that adblocking and tracker blocking can only be enabled +n the app. In fact, it's actually implied that it's done in the Nighthawk app to protect the entire network.

Also, it's never mentioned anywhere in the Armor Plus FAQ on how to enable them.

I checked twice before making this reply. This isn't a Bitdefender app, so posting links to Bitdefender's website is extremely misleading. Their steps don't match the apps provided by Netgear.
