That should be "netgear armor" not "under armor". Sorry.
Also, I use the Nighthawk app on my iPhone and tried to disable Armor from there. When I go to Setting->Security, it opens store.bitdefender.com and forces me to purchase the Armor! I don't want to renew the expired trial of Armor or even purchase Armor. I just want to get rid of the Armor (expired) from my X6.
Thank you.

Hi firefox111, welcome to the community! The Armor feature will be disabled if the status is expired. Are you looking to remotely manage your router via the Nighthawk app? If yes, please try toggling the Remote Management feature off then on and check if the issue will persist.
