Armor
I have the RAX80 Router!
1. Armor for this router, is that a "Flash of BIOS" install to router?????
2. If the VPN w/Bitdefender is not desired on Trial or after purchase (full product) can it be cleanly removed from 'router' without
bricking the router???????
3. Under 'warranty' will NETGEAR, replace router if BRICKED, by removal, of VPN w/Bitdefender
4. Upon & after istall of "Armor" are settings retained, or 'no' re-entering wifi pass
5. I doubt seriously that the "VPN code" was written by NETGEAR, most likely they "partnered" with a 3rd party VPN maker,
& had code written for Netgears products.... Which company did Netgear partner up with for the VPN????????????????
Bitdefender says it "VPN" is not compatible, with Netgear routers, meaning Bitdefender's role, with "UNKNOWN" VPN
contract supplier, is 'Anti Malware' addition to VPN. Again who wrote the code for Armor VPN was it Netgear or other????
6. The processor in any 'router' causes slow down, of internet speed, some processors fast others slow. I typically get
400+ mbps down (speed test) ethernet, reasonably with Armor, installed on 'router', what per cent decrease in speed
would be normal, or should accept. Obviously 400mbps down no Armor, goes to 80mbps with Armor. Would be non-
acceptable & trial period would end. With Rax80 what slowdown is normal no Armor vs having Armor installed???????
I understand this is a ballpark estimate, good or bad, & other issues in addition to vpn can cause slower speeds.
I do not trust Netgear & am very reluctant to try aromor, (most likely flash router bios) even under warranty.
7. I will be moving to Canada & streaming choices, are significantly less in Canada, so Armor VPN could prove useful. Geo unlocking
does this work WELL with NETFLIK & PRIME, or trying differnet servers.
8. How many servers around the globe, does netgears Armor package have??????????
Thanks

Re: Armor
Netgear support is an execise in frustration, & maddening at least. I choose to ask general questions in this community, your reply might as well been, have root canal, on that sore tooth without novacaine. If you cannont reply, then don't or just say, contact support.
Thanks
