This video tells you what you need to know to the thing running, but I need help setting up my network. I have a lot of network experience, and I cannot fathom why Sophos decided to reinvent the wheel. I need someone to translate their terminology for me, and the 888 support number is not getting me to that person. I need help!
I did not see a PPOE connection option in the basic set-up, it was only shown after the router is connected and registered. Can i not start with a PPOE connection for the WAN port during the basic set-up?
My ISP requires a username and password, what do I do with the Domain Name and Port section?
why do i need to create a username/password on sophos.com? can't i just do that locally, do i not own the product?
Hello,
Can I connect WAN on Port1 and LAN on Port2?
