    Hi @Fred2
    Can you DM me your Fingbox MAC address along with the picture of the Fingbox displaying the MAC address so to verify the account and then I will guide you further. Thanks

    @JIim_B2000, original instructions from this link.  I've modified it to reflect the new mobile app but the concept is the same.
    To move your Fingbox to a new network or disconnect, follow these simple steps:
    • Click on the bottom left ‘Overview‘ icon
    • Choose ‘All Networks’ (top right "..." icon) screen which contains a list of all your scanned networks.
    • Choose the Network with the Fingbox and swipe left with your finger.  Tap the garbage can icon, then choose deactivate.
    • When you press ‘Deactivate’. This will remove the network you have already configured, freeing up Fingbox to be assigned to a new network or allow someone else to configure it.
