Home Hub wireless question


[link to this post]
 
I've spent ages looking on the web but can't find any mention of the maximum number of wireless connections you can make?

Cheers in advance.

Regards Paul.

Great, I suspected that was the case but because I couldn't find the answer and the product is BT's I thought it best to ask! :-)

Most wireless access points allow 32 devices.

Well it depends what is the weak link in the chain is it the wireless radio or the technology itself. or the DHCP server which would be 253 devices.

I really wouldn't worry about it. You probably don't have room in the house for the number of machines it can handle nor the money to buy them

Dunno about the hub - but I don't suppose it's really very different to any other hub in terms of wireless performance. I've had 8 people in my house using my wireless connection on a Voyager 2500v with no problem other than a little slow down (all friends one evening setting up a web page).

Its was best to ask as I couldn't find the answer and was worried the maximum may be a low number. I'd be a fool to buy something and find it didn't do what I wanted and then to be told 'you didn't ask'!

:-)
