Armour

I see armour is not activated via the IOS app however it shows "active" via the web page - which is correct?  Is there a way to turn off via the http site?  http://10.0.0.1/start.htm

As far as I can determine, Armor cannot be deactivated from the web interface.  Only from the Orbi "app".

Re: Armour

Fair enough - but I can't activate from the app - it fails so is it on or off?

I certainly hope someone on the Armor community forum has an answer, because this beats me.

My guess is that (a) the web interface is correct - Armor is "on", and (b) the Orbi "app" cannot activate Armor because it is already activated.

 

(I understand it is essential for products these days to have smartsphone "apps", and that some WiFi routers can only be administered using a smartphone app, but Netgear's Orbi app seems to be more trouble than any value it adds.)
