Each access point should be able to be restarted. This helps in two ways:

1. Perform a OS restart of the Access Point if 'turning on and off' the wireless network does not work
2. Allows you to see a port blip on the POE switch to confirm what port the AP is connected to in remote areas

The Sophos XG firewalls should be able to detect rogue access points with APs connected the same way the models with built in wireless do.

Band steering allows dual band devices to be forced onto the faster 5Ghz spectrum when supported to free up bandwidth for those devices which only support the 2.4Ghz spectrum.
I believe Sophos Cloud wifi already supports this.
We need this on both XG and UTM

hotspot

HotSpot feature lacks logging capabilities.

For example it would be great to autmatically map and log voucher code with IP address of user that was using it and create reports based on this.
Without this it's impossible to audit what traffic was generated by that user.

Same issue is with UTM:

Is it possible to use Wireless authentication by Facebook and others social on Guest Wifi network via sophos AP ?

Apple Devices & WiFi:
So everybody knows that Apple has its own opinion for WiFi Roaming and switching to the next AP with the best wifi signal. I think it's a good idea to implement the 802.11k standard to Sophos AccessPoints, according to the knowledge page from Apple at: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202628 where they talking about the 802.11k Standard. Maybe this is a solution for Apple devices that have connection issues and do not want to switch the access point.

it could be nice to receive notification about the status of AP connected to XG (Wireless Protection), actually the state is displayed on the dashboard (numer of total AP / number of AP connected) but it is not a warning, there is no log in the Wireless Security section related to an AP that goes offline. Also in SFM there is no specific Alert/Notification about AP state.

I think you can do it on Sophos Cloud, but the ability to upload and mark on on a floor plan where all the access points are, and do site surveys.

I realize that it's a new standard, and the WFA is only just now beginning to certify devices, but are there plans to attain WPA3 certification for Sophos AP and managing firewalls?

It will be much easier for us if we able to reboot the AP from XG.

I'm facing a issue of High Latency on my Wi-Fi network with Sophos XG 230. While troubleshooting the same, I thought of restarting the APs to see if that helps. I'd to go and do that manually by going to every place the APs are installed. In a 6Floor building and 3 satellite office connected on fiber, with more than 15 APs, its a bit tough job to do so.

Request to enable a function in the OS to restart the APs remotely,

Please add support for 3rd Party WLAN USB NICs, this is very useful for Home users!

I think 1024 characters isn't enough for terms of use. Please increase the size of that field.

it would be great to schedule applying updates to wireless AP units.

It would also be good to be able to update multiple APs at different times in order to avoid a total wireless outage

Currently, the support address provided under of the terms of use at the bottom of the hotspot login page is the same address as that configured for XG system notifications. This information is not a customisable part of the login page template, and cannot be removed.

It would be helpful to be able to have more flexibility here for a use case where a different team / individual deals with any wireless queries to the team that receive / manage notifications.

we need report log Bandwidth usage each AP and count live connection about each client connect each AP

Problem is that it is not possible to choose a RED Interface within a Hotspot Definition.
So you cannot route a client from a branch office to a Hotspot Portal to authenticate. We have a guest Network in a branch office in an own vlan behind a RED50. I thought that the utm and xg Firewall have feature parity on RED and Wireless Feature... NO they dont have!
