Limitations of home edition

I'm sure this question gets beat into the ground often. I know the XG home edition has hardware limitations but when I tried using v18 last year I ran into an oddity with devices not getting online.  As soon as I swapped back to my other firewall they had no trouble. What I noticed was about 6-8 devices dropped all together. We have around 60+ devices in the home now and when I tried it was almost pushing 60.  I know at one point there was a 50 device limit but I read that was removed and the hardware limit 4cpu/6gb ram was the only thing left. Was there still a device limit still hidden in there somewhere?  I really like the software and wanted to give it a go at home.

  • Hello there,

    Good day and thanks for reaching out to Sophos Community 

    Yes correct Sophos Firewall Home do not have IP limitations but only on hardware limits. 

    May we check do those 6-8 devices mentioned are connected wirelessly? Maybe the drops happens on the AP side/network and not on the FW

    Cheers,
