Hi
I used to have two fing boxes on my home network, one on the main ethernet and wifi system and a second on my wifi mesh system which is used for guests and smart devices. One of the boxes died and I want to replace it with another one but I can not find a supplier in the UK. When I use the links on your web page I am directed to a US vendor who then redirects me to their UK outlet which does not stock it. The last one I bought was from Amazon but they no longer supply it. Please help, I feel rather exposed without a real security device on my mesh system.
Regards
Geoff Walker

    It appears, as you’ve discovered, that the fingbox is no longer in production. I have escalated a request for clarification of the Fingbox situation (including firmware development) and am waiting for a response.
    Currently your only option is to get a used device from Ebay or look at other options.

    Thanks for the information, it seems odd that the website makes no mention of production problems however I suppose that it is something they don't want to advertise.

    Interestingly, if you search on NewEgg for Fing or Fingbox, you get no results.  Your link above and the purchase link from your website (which is the same link), works fine...  You might want to contact NewEgg to see what's going on with their search.
