I activated armor and now it is blocking me from aps and about anything. I tried to turn it off but it won't stay off. I followed these steps below and agin it will not turn off. It blocks me from accessing most all of my stuff. I contacted support they tell me it's off. I am getting nowhere. Any help would be appreciated outher wise I am going to have to return if for refund and get something else...Thanks for any help

    Note: The icon varies depending on your router’s settings.

Also after you disable Armor in the NH App, be sure to power cycle the modem OFF for 30 seconds then back ON. 

Another way to fully disable Armor would be to factory reset the modem and setup from scratch. Just don't re-enable it after setting it up.
