Hello Sophos,
can we still expect the XG V18 MR 3 this week ?
Hi All,
To confirm, yes - the release for v18 MR3 has been unfortunately delayed and will not be released this week. Please stay tuned next week, as we'll continue to follow up with the development teams to share updates for the Community.
Hi Ian,
No available updates yet. Will let the thread know once I hear anything.
Since it was never officially "released" (sort of), Is MR2 a supported upgrade path to MR3?
Could you please update us on the release date of XG 18 - MR3 !
Hi All,
The team is actively working on the MR3 release. A date is not yet available, but please stay tuned as I will provide any new updates that I receive.

I've gone ahead and upgraded my production XG's to MR2. Even though there aren't any release notes its been running well on my home XG since I installed it. Who knows when MR3 will drop.
any chance to get a sneak peek on the release note?
it does seem like it but it's not, I use both (UTM & XG) and until the stability issues are ironed out (on both sides), these are not what I would class as an Enterprise grade products, and the support is just shocking most of the time. please note that when you get through to someone who knows then your issue
I have a ticket with them right now which is the same fault as 4 months ago, and it took Sophos 4 months to fix it before ... irony, and this fault first became visible to me 3 years ago.

Curious enough to take it apart, skilled enough to put it back together, Clever enough to hide the extra parts when I'm Done!
Are we still thinking weeks or months at this point?
I get you guys are doing your best, but my customers are really wanting to upgrade from 17 to 18 mr3. Just throw me another estimated date at least so I can make sure they stay happy. :)
I can only recommend you one thing ... Don't. v18 is mostly about two things. Decoupled NAT, and TLS/SSL Inspection rules. The later does not work. Source of continous problems and slowing down everything to a crawl. You can live with coupled NAT. So. Wait at least another year. Seriously. Other wise you'll be part of Sophos Q&A team liking it or not. And your customers will want to hang you.

Or maybe It will be out this week, there will be a webinar talking about v18 MR3 next Monday.
