Re: [H] Max connections on a router?
My router will let me set the number of connections. In Advanced/system settings on the router itself. Configure number of concurrent users that can be logged into the router: I picked 10. Rick Glazier From: Brian Weeden Is this normal for a consumer device, or does it seem this Buffalo router is sub-par? I've got an airport extreme at home and the max devices I've had connected at once is 5 or 6 with no problem.

Re: [H] Max connections on a router?
Verizon FIOS, Actiontec M1424-WR Rev.C One piece optical unit IN basement, (nothing outside house), then coax to actual router upstairs. Knowing it was an ISP model, I never thought the model number would help. (Sorry you had to ask.) In less than 2 years, I had an older model, AND a newer model. (I forced Verizon to support WPA2-PSK.) Verizon says they don't hold up. I'm thinking of putting the next one on its own UPS (upstairs). The basement unit has a built-in UPS, but only for itself.

Re: [H] Max connections on a router?
Hmm, not sure on that one, but my lowly Wireless G NetGear router supports 6-7 (or more) connections all the time... You wouldn't think that 8 connections would be an issue...

My Dad has a Buffalo N router that's about a year old and it was having problems. It seemed like only a couple of devices could be connected at the same time. Other devices would see a timeout from the router while trying to connect. Once connected the bandwidth was decent.
