When Bitdefender announced its Box, a new breed of security hardware, I was intrigued. It sadly over-reaches and isn’t quite ready for prime time, will be only useful in a very limited number of circumstances, and falls far short of being the kind of unique protective appliance that it promised.

It is a very unusual product: basically, it supplies the DHCP addresses in conjunction with your existing home router. But getting that combination to work reliability wasn’t pretty, and took weeks of effort too.
