Netgear Armor

Hello, do you know if I can link my Bitdefender account to the Netgear Armor service?

Hi There,

As far as i know you cannot link it. You have to install NightWalk app from netgear.

Have a look at Bitdefender website about netgear : https://www.bitdefender.com/site/view/netgear.html

You control NETGEAR Armor powered by Bitdefender from the same place you manage your entire home network – your NETGEAR Nighthawk app. You can activate security for your home network with a single tap. From the NETGEAR Armor dashboard you can then install protection for all your Windows, macOS, Android and iOS devices, and stay safe even when you leave your home Wi-Fi.

Thanks Flexx,

I have the Netgear Orbi system, and provided me with a trial of the Armor solution, that worked fine, but I have a 3 year subscription of Bitdefender, so that's the purpose of my question.

I'm not sure if they are the same or if there are differences that makes it clear to keep one or the other.

Do you might know who I might ask about it?

I have even called the people from Netgear but they weren't of much help.

BR,

Flexx

Sorry for the issue you are facing. Well the subscription for netgear armor is different from the standalone bitdefender subscription. So this means if you have 3 years subscription of standalone bitdefender product that will not work with netgear armor, since netgear armor has its own subscription plans.

For more information have a look at this Bitdefender support link which might answer your query : https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/27900/

To help you further and in exact way, you may drop an email to bitdefender support at bms@bitdefender.com or raise a ticket at https://www.bitdefender.com/support/contact-us.html

One should note here that the delay in replies may be their due to covid outbreak and less number of staff.

Does Bitdefender offer a router security software product? I have just installed a new Netgear router that has Netgear Armor which has a 30 day trial period activated.

I want to protect two routers and internet of things in two separate houses plus all my families devices.

Must I have two subscriptions (one for new router with Netgear Armor and one for existing plans with Bitdefender)?

Would it be best to merge everything under Netgear Armor? Is there a procedure to do that merge?

The most expensive option appears to be to subscribe to both and not co-mingle.

So, if I understand this, my three year subscription to TS will be essentially wasted if I buy an Armor subscription since that subscription also provides TS?
