Want to buy SG105 for home use - licensing and support?

Hi Igor,

If You like to have full support You should have a look on the SG105 basic guard bundle. It's the smallest and cheapest support bundle.

Bye CS

Interesting idea, CS.  I wonder if it's possible to purchase only a Premium Support subscription.  I wonder if Support would work on a unit with a home-use license if the individual owned a license not on the device.

I investigated and found that a 3 year licence and hardware was going to be cheaper than the last hardware I bought.

The issue being with the SG105 is what is the maximum internet speed you can get to work on the device. To me it looked like a SG115 would be needed for most home users 4gb and about 95mb/s throughput which I did not look at cost.

The advantages are no IP limit upto hardware overload, supposed support.

But being a fiddler (the pun being I can't fiddle and I am always off key) I choose to buy more hardware which is a way overkill, quad core e3, 8gb and some ssd I had lying around on a server MB.

I do look at the specifications of both UTM and XG and wonder what world the developers (hardware) live in. My home system without too many users UTM uses about 4gb and my XG uses 2.5gb, but the basic systems sell with 2gb get real guys. 4gb of ram is not that expensive, in fact trying to buy 2gb of ram probably costs more.

We bought two SG105 and are more than disapointed.

One of them (#1) is used at home. Family with three kids. All kids are to young to have pcs or mobiles. The second (#2) is used in a very small office of us. At this time nobody is in that office.
But bouth SG105 are running out of ressources:

The UTM220 at the bottom of the screenshot is my home hardware ;-)

Hi,

thank you for the screen shot. You confirmed my thoughts on an SG105/XG105.
