Fing Quickstart

Start Here

This is a summary to help you get up and running quickly.   Each of these steps is described in detail in the Get Started section of this knowledge base.

1. Download the Fing App.  Go to  get.fing.com. Install on Desktop, Mobile (iOS or Android), Web App, or other Monitoring Unit. The Desktop version includes an onboard agent so you do not need to install a separate agent. 
2. Enable Location Permissions.  Fing recommends that you grant full network and location access for best performance.  
3. Assign the network context - Home, Office, Rental, or Public.  This is required for some features to work, including blocking devices.
4. Review your Fing plan and features.  Know which features your plan supports.    Unsupported features will be greyed out on your app. Go to Fing Features by Tier.
5. View and learn about your Fing Dashboard.  This is your launch point for network exploration and is automatically launched when you install the application.  Go to Explore the Fing Dashboard.
6. View and learn about the highlights of your network--devices, users, ISP provider, internet speeds, and security assessment.

You are now up and running successfully on Fing.
