Hello,

How much clients may work with ONE such device (in real life ;-))?

Best regards,
Alexander

well as stated before on the wl-500gP forums

the device can lease 254 IP addresses to clients.
So if you have enough switches to connect to the router you can actually get to 254.

but if you dont: 4 clients on lan
the router has 270mbit wireless (no 300mbit here, or you must go for the RT-N16 coming out soon). With more bandwidth to share... you can hang a lot of wireless clients on it. Like when you have 54 wireless clients, they all can have 5mbits bandwidth... quite reasonable.

it just all depends on what you want, and how fast you want it.
I only have 10 wireless devices, but I never had a slowdown
