# Welcome to AVADO

Your AVADO comes with pre-configured hardware and software to help you get started with Web3 staking quickly. &#x20;

## Overview of Options

Below is an overview of the different options and required steps. &#x20;

* Next, we highly recommend that you install [**Remote Connect + Zerotier**](https://docs.ava.do/your-avado/connecting-to-your-avado/set-up-remote-connect-+-zerotier)**.** This gives you convenient and secure access, both at home and from a remote location.
