Netgear Armor - Scam?
I’m beginning to assume Netgear Armor is a scam altogether. I can see no history of any scans/activity in the Orbi app. When I check for any potential threats “defended”, it lists none. If you check...
It’s a mixed environment including PC’s, game consoles, IoT devices, etc. None of the devices show any threats detected, but more importantly no device including the router shows any scans having been completed.

To your post below, while I understand your sentiment, a scam is a scam. Whether it’s done through malicious motives or improper handling is irrelevant. If I’m charged for a product that’s not doing as advertised while simultaneously being told that I need to “escalate” my issue when I ask to cancel (per the process outlined in the product FAQ), that feels like a scam to me. I do hope you end up being right though. Either way I’ll post whatever the ultimate resolution is here.
