I do not see a security tab on the Android Orbi app.  There definitely IS a menu choice for Security under the Advanced tab on the web interface.  Alas, I could not find a way to activate Armor because during the initial setup I told Orbi, "do NOT bug me about this ever again."

 

Have you tried the web interface?

Hi @clvk07

 

Can you please confirm the firmware version installed? Please make sure as well that you have the latest Android Orbi app (v2.3) installed. If you already have the latest app, I suggest to uninstall and reinstall the app.

Hi @clvk07

 

How did you update the firmware? Please reflash the same firmware version and let us know of the result. We checked our Orbi units here and we were able to enable Security Armor.

I just checked and found that the latest Android Orbie app (2.3) was available on Google Play.  Installed it and, sure enough, there is now a "Security" option under "Settings" that brings up the option to activate Armor.  As far as I can tell, this option does not appear on the Orbi web interface for version 2.3.0.32
