How to configure privacy features (VPN, Ad Blocking and Malware & Phishing protection)
Privacy Hero's privacy features can be enabled and disabled both on the router level and the device level.
- Adjusting them globally, on the router level means - they apply globally to all devices connected to your Privacy Hero router.
- Adjusting them per device, or on the device level means - they will override the global "shared" profile and only apply on that specific device.
How to configure globally on the router level:
Step 1:
From the app or the web dashboard's home screen select the VPN shield icon.
Step 2:
On the next screen, simply turn any of the options available ON/OFF
How to configure individually per device:
Step 1:
From the app's or the web dashboard's home screen select the device you want to configure from the device list at the bottom.
Note - Devices will only appear on this list if they have connected to the Privacy Hero network at least once before.
Step 2:
Next, select the Settings tab on screen and adjust any of the settings to ON/OFF.
Remember that this will override any of the privacy settings you have set globally for this particular device.
