How do I get a Home Edition license?

Question

I created a sophos account, and clicked on the activation link when the email showed up. I then clicked on the download button for the vmware appliance, checked my agreement to the ToS, and it started downloading. I never did get an email with the Home Edition license. Without that, I can't seem to do anything in the GUI aside from setting the static IP address. What am I missing?

You can get a Sophos XG Firewall Home Edition license from the free tools area on sophos.com here: 
 www.sophos.com/.../sophos-xg-firewall-home-edition.aspx 
 
Click ‘Get Started’ and follow the steps. This will lead you to a page of downloads and you will be sent an email containing a serial number (this can take a few minutes to arrive). Follow the steps in the email to get up and running. If you need to get the download again then you can get them from MySophos (perhaps this is where you started in this case).
