Hostname=> FQDN ?

$

Hello.
I managed to get connected - the setup wizard started - and it wants a 'hostname'.

So, I take a look and see in the docs that a FQDN is recommended...and now I fall down again...maybe:confused:.

My knee-jerk idea was just to fill that with 'firewall' - BUT=> I do have a DynDNS account I'll want to use later that is like 'myname.webhop.net' and the home network is not domain-based, it is just a workgroup called...HOME :D!

So - I filled that with 'firewall.myname.webhop.net' =>
Hopefully that will be OK, and if not - would someone please recommend what might be better as a hostname, please ?

Referring to Bob's reply:cool: in the posting I 'cleaned':
What is the advantage, please, to using the 30-day limited license over adding in the home license which I have ?

Thanks !
