  • Simple install

    Everything worked perfectly as others have stated.
  • Firewalla Blue Plus

    This small firewall/VPN device is awesome. The installation was very easy and the application options are straightforward. I especially like the notifications when a new device is detected or when an open port is detected. If you are looking for an additional firewall/VPN device for extra protection for your network, I recommend this product.

  • i haven’t had any issues. It just worked.

    It just works.
    Shows all the bad actor apps on your devices either exfiltrating data or the like.
    Plenty of other cool insights into your network.

    Update: upgraded to gold hardware. love it.
  • Works great so far!

    This makes it super easy to put a very powerful network security device on your network. It was plug and play simple indeed. Great work!!
  • Firewall app - just what the parent ordered!

    Small product, easy to install, easy to manage, provides excellent control of devices in your home. Worried about porn - blocks it easily, worries about after hours internet access - easily configure to shut off, worries about inappropriate searches - easy to block, want your kids to focus on homework and goof off on their school device - easy to control. This device gives parents the ability to protect their families. Social media and pornography are destroying our children’s minds. This device is no substitute for teaching and parenting, but it’s a great tool to have in your parent toolbox.

  • Outstanding Product

    Very pleased with this appliance as it allows me to “see” what is going on within my home network. The VPN server also lets me tunnel back and out to access content (e.g. sports) restricted to local markets. I highly recommend adding this to your network for security.
  • You need this if you have kids and/or home automation devices

    I am now aware of what is going on on my network. Bad actors on my home network are blocked from even accessing the internet. I caught a device (a cheap light switch) trying to upload large to a foreign country up.

    Kiddos act more responsible online knowing that I get alerted real-time if they go places they are not supposed to..

    There is a Firewalla for everyone.

  • Outstanding app for outstanding products

    Lots of functionality and constantly improving. Provides an easy way to improve network security but also allows more advanced users to tweak things considerably.
  • This Device and app is a must for people working from Home!

    I took out my sonicwall and replaced it with the Firewalla. This device gives me so much more insight into my network and puts all the features to research issues under one pane of glass. Invest in the Firewalla if you are working from home! There are so many great features to this little box!
  • Where to begin

    I’ll start by saying I backed both the Red and the Blue. I even backed this product, thinking they would get their act together for the ultimate Firewalla experience. Failed right out of the box. They provide a wall hanger but fail to put the QR label in an accessible location. Now, I have to remove the Gold box from the wall mount and then remove a single screw so I can swing the Gold box enough to capture the QR label with my phone camera.
    Just getting started. Next forget simple. I’ve captured and lost connection to my Gold box so many times, I can’t remember. So, I’d add another “fresh” box to the line up and attempt to reconnect against. Sometimes successful most times not.
    Had enough of a review. Fix this mess.
