Since XG is still buggy as hell, why doesn't Sophos upgrade the UTM 9 home license to 100 for home use?

TedAmes

I had to cut back on a lot of things at home. I have 75 ips in use (VM's, crap load of wifi devices along with fire tv's, AP's, etc.) Hell it even counts my switches & AP's, grrrr.

Since XG is still buggy and from what I have read, not even ready yet, I have tried XG on a vm, and not impressed yet. Why doesn't Sophos just upgrade the licenses to 100. 50 devices is good for a family of 2, I have a family of 5 and, have additional ips for school ipads, phones, my personal tablets, work tablet, fire tv's and crap load of VM's for homelab use. 

I had to cut a lot of my vm's off due to the licensing, They allow 5 over, but still not enough.

Any thoughts on this?

EDIT: Left out that IP6 addresses are taking up just as much as ip4 address, Each device counts as 2 because of it.

    If your cell/mobile phones have better data allowance than your internet, then phones need to access the UTM. If you are streamin media, how do you stream the data from the internet if your streaming device is not connected? Lightbulbs now they definitely don't need to be connected, but maybe a controller does.
    The real issue is the double counting for IPv4 and IPv6 address allocations to the same MAC device.
