license expires

Question

Hello experts,

I am new to this Forum and have a question. I am using Sophos UTM9 (free, Home use). Approx. two years ago, I bought 2 Sophos Accesspoints. I am very satisfied with the System and it works perfekt for me.
A view days ago, I got the message "Wireless protection will expire in 5 days".
Does this have any effect to my wireless Network, when wireless protection expires? Do I need to buy a seperate license to operate the Access Points with my home use license?

thanks for your help in advance and please appologize my english.

Hi, 
 
Really appreciate this guidance Scott - I use the UTM 9 for home purposes as well as it being deployed in our corporate environment. Whilst I appreciate expectations on "home use" support should be realistic, I have been struggling to work out the "home use" renewal process for some time. I contacted the NSG licensing team...and got the following limited and ambiguous response: 
 
"Hello, 
 
The Home license is valid for 3 years and cannot be renewed. 
 
Please download a home use license again and kindly reinstall. 
 
 secure2.sophos.com/.../download.aspx 
 
Thanks! 
NSG Licensing"

Many thanks again for your simple and accurate instructions here.
