Second Firewall try

As someone who has studiously avoided network admin and grown very tired of having to keep up with real security and security porn sensationalism, the Gold box I bought to replace my Avast Omni has been a huge improvement in speed, ease of monitoring what's trying to get in/out and administration of a home network. I was going to get a network pro in to suggest a replacement, so this paid for itself maybe many times over. Firewalla Documentation is unusually good. Block by region is fantastic. Averaging 20% connection request from suspect IPs that have 0 reasons for trying to connect, especially overnight. Nearly 9000 last 24 hrs. If Firewalla does specific location consultation I'm interested. Only downside has been both Firewalla and Antivirus installs are scanning the lan for open ports and reporting on each other which is a little tiresome but I appreciate that's working.

Easy to setup and use while still a powerful firewall

I have used the Firewalla Gold for about 6 months. It was easy to setup and configure and offers a number of security features to help protect my family and IoT. The company continues to expand the features on this device making it more powerful and useful by the month. For anyone looking to get a solid firewall for protection from threats and unwanted internet pages, there is no better choice than the Firewalla line of equipment. If you are more of a power user and need additional bandwidth and high availability, I would recommend the Firewalla Purple. For those needing network segmentation, high availability, and multiple GB of bandwidth, take a look at the Firewalla Gold. This is not a paid review and Firewalla did not entice this review in any way.

This is a great product.

It's so much easier to use something like this vs. trying to manage it all yourself using OpenWRT/DD-WRT. I had everything in place at one point but then my router was reset to factory defaults and I lost everything. This is a turnkey solution that is worth living every penny for the peace of mind knowing what is happening on your home network. Every father should own one of these.Oh yeah GigoMikol can achieve custom block times for different days by choosing "Weekly" and picking the days. I have two rules setup for my oldest son to allow later internet access on weekends.

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.

Review of App on an iPad, not the Firewalla Device

To start, as my title notes, I am basing my review on the application on an iPad. The Firewalla device is awesome. (I have a Gold.)It is unclear to me why the Firewalla team has made a half-hearted attempt to mark this as compatible with an iPad and iPhone. When it runs on an iPad, it forces portrait mode. I suppose this is okay for folks who use their iPads that way. For anyone using a keyboard (such as Apple’s), the iPad is in landscape mode. Sure, one does get more real estate this way…but it isn’t really usable real estate.Mark the app’s attribute as iPhone. It’d be just as useful on an iPad…still in portrait, just magnified. Five stars if this actually worked in either landscape or portrait on an iPad.

Great Firewall, simple to use, but powerful

If you want to protect your network and have great visibility into what is going on under the hood, Firewalla is a great solution. It’s easy to install and shows all the devices connected to that network. For each device you can see the traffic and where they are connecting to. You can limit access to the Internet, gaming, porn, social networks and videos. It supports both VPN server and client allowing remote network connections while limiting which devices can use that connection. Is supports DNS caching, encrypting DNS requests limiting your ISP ability to track what you are doing and supports ad blocking. Highly recommended

Really good!

I’m using the app with a Firewalla Gold. There is enough functionality to do probably most of what one needs to do in a home deployment and then some. Of course this is not as full featured as other paid or open source alternatives; however, the upside is a MASSIVE improvement in ease of use. That said, the devs are extremely receptive to community feedback and are continuously refining and adding features that people wanting to tinker will appreciate. I hope this continues to be a successful and growing company because I really don’t think there is any other offering with this mix of capability and ease of use.

Firewalla Purple

I don’t typically write reviews but after using the FW Purple for about a month, I feel that it is worth the time to leave a comment. This little box rocks. It’s packed with features that keep my young teens from seeing things that they should not be subjected to. I love the VPN features as well. I can connect to my home network from abroad and surf the internet and feel as safe as I do at home. I look forward to future updates and features.

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.
