Limitations of home edition

zookii24

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.

    HI,

    the limitation is still 4CPU and GB of RAM. You will be hard pressed using the full 6gb of ram. Your issue sounds like a firewall rule. Please review the logviewer for information. How many of your devices use the AP and how is it setup to provide connectivity?

    My example is, I have 45 devices on a dual stack network with 47 firewall rules and use about 3.2gb of ram.

    Wow, I was running prob 20+ firewall rules originally, each specific rule for a particular device type etc.  So for example Sonos, Unifi devices with MAC address lists etc.

    Need to sit down and work out how I want them structured again.

    Did similar with my pfsense firewall, but that was IP reservations etc.
