Armor paid subscription - unable to activate on RBR50 router
I purchased Netgear Armor security after about two weeks of trialing the product. When I login to the RBR50 router from my PC it says "Security Status Not Activated". When I login to the Orbi App fro...
Hello Haejo,
Thanks for your reply. Upon purchase I obviously did receive the activation code and used it according to the given instructions. Actually, I have been running Bitdefender security software through the ARMOR subscription since the day of purchase/activation on all of my devices but the RBR50 router that for some reason kept the 30-day trial that came with the unit, until it expired yesterday. My login credentials are the same for both the Orbi app and the Netgear Armor portal, so this also cannot be the reason for the issue. I guess that I'm facing the exact same problem that the other members posted in this thread earlier, that were eventually able to resolve it through the Netgear support staff (I already sent a private message to the person who was mentioned to help fix that for the others). But thanks anyway, it's appreciated!
Best,

Hi js_home .
I had the exact same issue. Here's what I did to resolve it. I went to Bitdefender Support and opened a chat session, in which I explained briefly the problem I was experiencing. The rep told me that the case would be escalated to the next level and would be hearing from them shortly. I then received an email with a case number. I then sent a private message to DexterJB explaining the problem and gave him both the case number I got from Bitdefender Support and my router's serial number. Within two business days, the problem was solved. Good luck!
