  • Hi,

    the home licence does not provide wifi support for the inbuilt device.

  • HI,

    from forum members who have tried to enable the inbuilt wifi and from Sophos staff that post in these forums.

    A point is that some have enabled the inbuilt wifi but noted that after each update of firmware the configuration was wiped and they had to start again.

  • Hello together,

    after a long night now i know the right answer of this issue! 

    There are two different images from sophos:

    - Hardware Image

    - Software Image

    https://support.sophos.com/support/s/article/KB-000043162?language=en_US

    If you have an sophos appliance you can install both image with a little trick!

    Hardware Image: If you install this, everything is wroking correctly (incl. WiFi) but you can not use the home license!

    Software Image: If you install this, the appliance is working as a pc with nics on your model, but wifi will not be functional! It is a driver problem.

    i hope this information helps some people who are new on home license.

    Best Regards

    Manuel
