Client to client safety

Client isolation is a method we use in order to protect our users the best we can from other users. Unfortunately, there isn't an all powerful program or firewall we can use to prevent any kind of malicious intent between users. We can however erect as many safe guards as we have available to us, and suggest to our users to use their own VPN when necessary.

Most FreeLynk users wont have any reason to send or receive data between themselves on a free WiFi network. Some users can however take advantage of this settings and manipulate others computers and their data. In most home cases client mingling is fine because you're mingling between other trusted devices. You can always turn off client isolation for specific cases but for the vast majority of the time, leave client isolation enabled on all free WiFi networks. We'll show you how to enable it in each device individually as we go through their programming in the following tutorials.

We can only do so much to protect our users, but we are their shield and their sword. So we must at least do everything we can.
