Once the Wireless function of the ISP provided router is disabled the BOX will start to broadcast the secured Wireless
network.
We recommend reconnecting your devices to the network by toggling the WiFi off and back on or by restarting them.

The setup is complete and all the connected devices will be protected by the Bitdefender BOX.

If you don’t want the BOX to clone your existing Wir
eless network you can select the option to create a new WiFi
network.
Once this option is selected you can manually enter the Wireless network name and password.
Keep in mind that by creating a new Wireless network you will need to reconnect all your devices to it in order to be
protected by the BOX.

You should disable the Wireless feature of your ISP provided modem to allow your devices use only the BOX secure
network.

protected network. If your devices will still use the previous network of the router they will not be protected by the Bitdefender
BOX.
