1 Device Decription
This section will give you an overview of the InvizBox Go device.
1.1 Start/Stop Button
The start/stop button is in fact the logo on the top part of the casing. In order to press that button, just
press the logo on the casing until you feel the button being pressed underneath (this gets easier with a bit
of practice). In order to know if you've successfully pressed that button, keep an eye on the battery lights
which will com on (or off).
1.2 Charging the InvizBox Go
One side of the InvizBox Go is dedicated to the battery and charging. On that side of the casing, you will
find:
• a micro USB port which you can use to charge your InvizBox Go
• a battery shaped LED display to let you know the battery state
1.3 Using the InvizBox Go as a charger
On the other side of the InvizBox Go casing you will find a USB port. This port is used when you're using
your InvizBox Go as a charger.
Just plug your usual devices to this port to charge them.
Section 1 Device Decription Page 5

1.4 Wi-Fi LED display
Also on the non charging side, you will find a Wi-Fi shaped LED display. The purpose of this display is to
keep you informed on the networking state of the Invizbox Go.
2 First Connection to the InvizBox Go
2.1 Starting the Invizbox Go
In order to start your InvizBox Go (or stop), you need to press the top part of the casing where the
Invizbox Logo is. Under the case, there is a button which once pressed will start your device.
Within a couple of seconds after having pressed that button (no need to leave it pressed), a green light is
going to be shown, indicating that the device is booting.
That light will then switch off until the device can determine in which state its networking is. For example,
until the setup is complete, that light will be red (indicating that the InvizBox Go is not connected to any
network).
2.2 Connecting to the Invizbox Go
In order to connect to the Invizbox Go, you will need to identify the Wi-Fi hotspot that it is running and
connect to it. Until the setup is complete, that network will be called "InvizBox-Go-Setup".
Just connect your phone or computer to that network as you normally connect to any Wi-Fi network.
2.3 Accessing the InvizBox Go interface
Now that you are connected to your InvizBox Go, you need to access the administration interface.
•Some operating systems automatically identify that the hotspot requires a setup and will give you a
link to the setup page automatically. If this is the case, don't hesitate to use that link (eg. Android
phones and Windows 10 computers have such links)
• On most devices, you will need to open a browser and go to http://inviz.box
•Some devices are unable to access that URL, if it is the case for you, you will then need to go to
http://10.153.146.1
At any stage, you can access the InvizBox Go administration interface using http://inviz.box
(http://10.153.146.1 for some of you). And therefore, I would recommend that you bookmark that page as
you will need to access it when you want to change network or VPN Location in the future.
Now that you have accessed your device administration interface, you are ready to go through the
Installation Wizard as described in the next section.

3 Installation Wizard
This section will help you complete the Installation Wizard which is a once off process on your InvizBox
Go.
3.1 Welcome Page
In this page, you have to accept the User Agreement by ticking the box and then click on the "Let's Go"
button to proceed with the rest of the installation wizard.
Section 3 Installation Wizard Page 7

3.2 Hotspot Page
In this page, you have to choose the name of the Wi-Fi hotspot that your Invizbox Go is going to create (to
use in the same way as the Wi-Fi you've just connected to which was called Invizbox-Go-Setup). The
default proposed network name is "Invizbox-Go".
You will then have to choose a password to use on that Wi-Fi hotspot (to use in the same way as the
password you've used to connect to the Invizbox-Go-Setup network which was provided to you on a card
with your Invizbox Go device). The default proposed password name is the one that was provided on that
card.
Once you have chosen a name and password for your Invizbox Go Wi-Fi network, click Next to go to the
next wizard page.
Important Note: every time a new password is set in this page, the administrator password will also be
set to that value (That administrator password can subsequently be changed to a different value in the
Administration Page).

3.3 Choose Network Page
In this page, you have to select a network to connect to.
The Invizbox Go has performed a scan of all networks available to you and listed them from the clearest
signal to the weakest. It also adds information regarding the fact that these networks require a password
or not.
After having selected your network of choice, you will be prompted to enter its password (unless the
network was "Open" which meant that there is no password required)
Once you have chosen a network and entered the password for it, click Next to go to the next wizard
page.
Section 3.3 Choose Network Page Page 9

3.4 Account Details Page
In this page, you have to enter your VPN username and password.
Your username and password have been provided to you either by email or on a card within your Invizbox
Go packaging. If you're unsure what your username is, it looks like your email address and ends with
"@invizbox" (an example of the format is present in the username field in grey - we hope you appreciate
the reference)
Once you have entered your VPN credentials, click Next to go to the next wizard page.
