User Manual
We want to keep this user manual as simple as possible. If some function requires too many words to explain, it probably means we need to redesign our user interface.
If at any stage you have problems or suggestions, please feel free to send email to help@firewalla.com. Customer satisfaction is built into our team culture. Our engineering team will answer every email. If you like the software, please give us a good review, our engineers will work harder!
