Firewalla

Good

Perfect firewall for prosumers

Great app to pair with an outstanding security device.

Intuitive and stable app that works seamlessly with the Firewalla Purple. Wish it was easier to block alarms on root DNS for things like serving up YouTube videos, otherwise a straight forward interface.

I have a Firewalla purple that has been running my network for about a year now, it’s has all the features I need to monitor my network and set rules for the kids and what not. The visibility on the app is also very well done and layed out. Update: upgraded to gold plus for faster speed. App continues to improve and add features without compromising stability. Overall excellent app/product.

I have been using the firewalls app with the Gold hardware for over a year and it has remained rock solid, easy to use, and powerful. For anyone who wants a powerful, but simple to use firewall I cannot recommend this setup enough.

Ok I wanted to take a break from my day job of computer security and having to do a lot of scripting to make things work. When if it came time to make our home network more secure, I was looking for a device that was easy to setup, but also flexible and won’t take hours to maitain. Not only was this easy to setup. It has saved me! This this reported our security cameras sending hundreds of meg of data to the company, even after we had the cameras turned off… System also found several PC’s accessing malware sites. All PC’s are already running top notch scanners and those did not catch it. Easily to group machines/devices and apply rules to those groups. Good for preventing kids from accessing adult sites, games, etc. Firewalla app made all this easy to setup. And the support from factory is ver quick as well as factory and user community on Facebook Thanks

I have a Firewalla Gold and consider myself a regular user. This device completely replaced my ISP’s gateway and directly connects to my fiber ONT. That’s one less device I have to plug in! I love the built-in VPN service, which I use with my NordVPN account. I also use the VON server so I can browse the internet from my home network and access my local devices when on the go. Ad block, internet controls, and network monitoring work great, giving me total control and peace of mind over my network. I also highly recommend buying the wifi antennae. It allows you to use a wifi hotspot as a backup source of internet if your home internet goes out. I added my iPhone’s mobile hotspot as a failover network. If my home internet goes out, I turn on hotspot and it feeds internet through the Firewalla to all of the devices in my house. It’s amazing! Finally, the support team is incredible. I’ve reached out over email and on Reddit and always got a fast and helpful response. They are constantly pushing out new features to the app and listening to what their customers want. Yes, the box is pricy, but it’s well worth it in my opinion. My only critique is to have a working iPad app. But that’s not a dealbreaker by any means.

One of the best investments for your home or business network.

Amazing interface, reliable and smooth
