False Positive DoS Attacks

RS200 is the product, since it isn't an option under Associated Products. But why would it be at this point? I'm pretty disgusted with this router, or Netgear Armor to be exact.
I am receiving false positives as the title says and my router is blocking a Google IP (youtube.com) from playing videos along with blocking an Apple IP (speechify.com) from playing audio. Both are being logged as DoS attacks. After messing around for a few hours with a factory reset and what not, I realized the firmware wasn't automatically updating so I manually did it. However, the problem still persists. I disabled protection engine first thing, but protection engine did not stop "protecting".
So, I tried to use my old nighthawk router. And guess what, NETGEAR ARMOR, that I am assuming is a virus at this point. Is still blocking these sites from playing! WTF
What is really going on at this point?!

Hrmmmm, after hours of fighting with my router after installation I seem to have figured something out to where my videos are now processing and working. My audio codec files have been switched up, maybe something not even to do with the router, however, when I mute the sound on videos, the videos play. So, I switch the audio codecs and the video begins to play with sound.
Is it just coincidence that these two things happened at what seems, the same time? But why do so many people have the same issue? Problem seems to be solved, at least for me, for right now.

Re: False Positive DoS Attacks
Blocking all 443 traffic videos unless streaming in the background. It isn't until pulled to the forefront that it is considered a DoS attack. Don't know but I can play and stream games just fine. **bleep**e is wonky af.
