Can I try the firewall before I buy?
Yes, the downloadable installer includes a free 24-hour trial. The trial is exactly like the full application and has no feature limitations. In addition, you can buy and evaluate Radio Silence without any obligation for a full 30 days. If you aren't 100% happy with it, for any reason at all, you'll get your money back.
Is Radio Silence available through the Mac App Store?
No. Firewalls like Radio Silence can't be sold through the App Store, because they have to peek inside the operating system to see the network connections of other processes. The App Store doesn't accept applications that need this privilege.
How do I upgrade from the trial version to the full version?
Once your trial is over, Radio Silence will ask for your license key. When you buy Radio Silence, you get your license key to your email inbox. If you want to register your license key before the trial is over, choose 'Register…' from the application's menu.
Do I need to install another version of Radio Silence if I upgrade from the trial version?
No. The trial version is the real thing. It simply has a time limitation. Once you input your license key, the time limitation disappears.
How long do I have to wait for the email after purchase?
The emails are usually sent within one minute of purchase. If you don't see the email in your inbox, check your spam folder.
I have more than one Mac. Do I have to buy a separate license for each one?
No need. You can install Radio Silence on all the computers you have. The license is for your personal use, and is not tied to a single computer.
What version of OS X / macOS do I need?
Radio Silence requires macOS Catalina (10.15), Mojave (10.14), High Sierra (10.13), Sierra (10.12), OS X El Capitan (10.11) or OS X Yosemite (10.10). Legacy versions are available for older versions of OS X, all the way back to OS X Snow Leopard (10.6).
Do I have to run the Radio Silence application after every reboot to activate it?
No, the Radio Silence firewall is invisible and runs automatically when you start your Mac. If you are happy with your list of blocked applications, you don't have to do anything.
Does Radio Silence stay active if I close the window or quit the application?
Yes. There's no need to keep the application window open. The user interface is only used to make changes to the actual firewall. Even if you close the application window, the firewall stays active and vigilant.
What exactly does Radio Silence do?
The firewall lets you make a list of applications that aren't allowed to access the internet. The network monitor lets you see all the connections made by apps and processes in real time.
How is this different from the built-in firewall in Mac OS X?
The built-in firewall doesn't stop outbound traffic at all. You can only block incoming connections with it, which doesn't help with applications that want to phone home. The Radio Silence firewall does stop outbound connections.
Is Radio Silence able to stop Adobe Photoshop from phoning home?
Yes. Radio Silence works with any applications you have installed. (This particular question is asked so often that it is answered here separately. Please be nice and don't pirate software.)
How do I uninstall Radio Silence?
You can simply move the Radio Silence application to the Trash. If you want to be thorough and remove all traces of the app, also delete the following two files and one directory:
- /Library/LaunchAgents/com.radiosilenceapp.agent.plist
- /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.radiosilenceapp.nke.plist
- ~/Library/Application Support/Radio Silence/
Why do I get the error 'Firewall inactive, please restart your Mac'?
Either something went wrong with your installation, or you have an old version of Radio Silence and recently updated your system to OS X El Capitan.
Both issues have the same easy fix. Simply download and run the latest installer. You can safely run the new installer without uninstalling anything first.
I was just listening to the most recent Security Now Podcast episode 83 wherein Steve Gibson goes to pains to describe what it takes on Windows to turn off your wireless hardware. Here's an excerpt from the transcript:
STEVE: Believe or not, yes. We’ve basically snuck in an entire show on maintaining full radio silence on Windows WiFi.
LEO: Well, it started when we were talking about this Free Public Wi-Fi that pops up on Windows from time to time, and what it was, and how now Microsoft has offered a fix but never told anybody about it, and you have to explicitly download it. That’s what we talked about last week. And if you didn’t hear last week’s episode, you should absolutely download that update.
STEVE: Right. So that was our second mention. Then the week before, Episode 81, we talked about – we actually showed the dialogues required to turn off the functionality, just sort of this promiscuous connect-to-anything-that-I-hear, and also this idea of broadcasting the names of any networks you had connected to before, which by default Windows tries to do. It turns out that it’s trying to do that still, even after you’ve got the update, because Microsoft added a checkbox to one of the configuration dialogues which is checked by default, and you have to go turn it off. So here in our fourth serialized How to Get Wi-Fi Just to Shut Up, we have additional instructions. People can, if they go to the show notes for this Episode 83, I’ve got a link back to the new and enhanced instructions that are over now on Episode 81’s notes. So Episode 81’s show notes are enhanced with this additional information, and this episode links back to those.
LEO: So this is if you installed the patch that Microsoft offered in November to fix wireless zero config, it’s still promiscuous unless you uncheck this box.

STEVE: Yes. There’s a box which enables it to connect to networks which are not broadcasting. And so if the networks are not broadcasting, then your computer does. And it’s just like, okay...
- Mac: A lot of apps secretly check in with the mothership behind the scenes without asking your permission. If you’d prefer they didn’t, Radio Silence can solve your problem hassle-free.

LEO: Is this ad hoc only? Or is it infrastructure networks, as well?
STEVE: It’s both. And so anyway, the idea is – in fact, I realized, okay, I started using the term “maintaining full radio silence.”
LEO: Yeah, that’s a good way to talk about it, yeah.
STEVE: As the famous jargon. And that’s what we want. We want to be able to carry a laptop around. If we forget to disable our Wi-Fi, we don’t want it sending out stuff of any sort. We want full radio silence. And so it turns out that following the instructions that are now on the show notes for 81, with the update which we talked about in 82, which we’re all pulling together now in 83, when we first opened the topic in 80, we basically snuck in a whole Security Now! episode on maintaining full radio silence.'
Here's a link instructions to the instructions from Security Now:
For details on 'Maintaining Full Radio Silence' from Windows WiFi systems, please see the updated show notes for episode #81. They assume (and require) that the system has been updated with the Wireless Client Update for XP as described in episode #82 and notes.
If it's not clear, the step by step instructions for how to turn off WiFi are located at http://www.grc.com/sn/notes-081.htm
Because Steve didn't mention how to do this on the Mac, I think I'll take the liberty of providing a comprehensive guide complete with pictures, so you can follow along. This guide applies to at least the last 3 versions of Mac OS X. Here goes:
Step 1: Click the Airport Menu
Step 2: Select Turn AirPort Off
Steve was talking mostly about WiFi radio emissions, but since most Macs have Bluetooth these days, I thought I'd go a step further and document how to turn off Bluetooth radio emissions as well.
Step 1: Click the Bluetooth Menu
Step 2: Select Turn Bluetooth Off

In conclusion, if you are ever responsible for designing the 'turn it off' use case, please consider the above mentioned comparison before completing your design.

Update 1: As a companion article, Joel Spolsky talks about the trials of turning off Windows Vista.

Update 2: It looks like I misunderstood what Steve was talking about. He wasn't talking about how to turn off WiFi, but how to keep the Windows WiFi system from broadcasting data about which networks you've connected to in the past. Does the Mac OS do this? I don't know.
