How do I add my VPN credentials to my InvizBox 2?

You just received your InvizBox 2 and need to enter your VPN credentials but you are not sure where to enter them or where you can get them from. Or you have a new set of VPN credentials from your VPN provider and wish to use them with your InvizBox 2.

Entering your VPN credentials:

You will first need to reach your InvizBox 2's Administration Interface. There are two ways to provide the IB2 with your VPN credentials, either during the onboarding or on the 'VPN Account' page in the Administration Interface.

Onboarding:

The first time you access the Admin Interface (either on your computer or using the Android or iOS app) you will be prompted to enter your VPN credentials during the onboarding.

In the image above you can see what the onboarding page would look like for a Windscribe VPN user. You should note that not all VPN providers will have the "IKEv2" section.

The above image shows the onboarding page from the Android app.

In the Administration Interface:

If you have completed the onboarding and wish to change your VPN credentials you can do so after logging in to the Administration Interface in the 'System - VPN Account' page.

Getting your VPN credentials:

Some VPN providers use different credentials for logging in to their website and for accessing their VPN servers. You can find which credentials you will need to use with your InvizBox 2 for your specific VPN provider below by selecting one of the links below:

InvizBox VPN

ExpressVPN

IPVanish

My Expat Network

NordVPN

Private Internet Access

ProtonVPN

InvizBox VPN:

If you purchased your InvizBox 2 with a VPN subscription your device will arrive ready to use with your VPN credentials already set up on the device.

2. Once logged in select 'VPN Account' in the menu on the left.
