How the 7-day free trial works
Every NetSecWall install gets 7 days with every feature unlocked, with no card, account or key. The trial is tied to the PC, starts when the app first goes online, and reinstalling doesn't reset it.
Install the NetSecWall Management Server
The beta Management Server has no installer. Copy NetLens.Server.exe and appsettings.json to a Windows machine, register it as a service with sc.exe, open ports 8090, 8091 and 8443, then sign in.
License key errors and the lock screen
Every activation error says what went wrong: the key isn't recognized, it's been revoked or has expired, or the server couldn't be reached. Here's what each means and how to fix it.
Move your license to another PC
Sign out on the old PC to release its license, then sign in or activate the same key on the new one. If the old PC is gone, open a support ticket and ask for it to be released.
Paying for NetSecWall with USDC or USDT
NetSecWall is paid in USDC or USDT on Base, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, BNB Chain or Solana. Plans are yearly, orders are final, and your key arrives once the payment confirms.
Exactly what NetSecWall sends over the internet
