AiProtection: is it a subscription?

[RocketJSquirrel]

I'm back with Merlin fw after being with John's fork for a long time, then Orbi. Demoted my Orbi to an access point and reinstalled my AC68U with latest Merlin.

So I'm new to this AiProtection thing. Dumb noob question: is AiProtection a subscription you pay TrendMicro for, or is it built in to the fw at no extra expense?

No cost. Comes with the router!
So, why did you give up on the Orbi? Netgear still fumbling with firmware?

Thanks.

Yes, NG is still fumbling with firmware, and even though it mostly works now, it is sorely lacking in router features found in Asus & Merlin fw.
