Click here for our free report - Mobile Marketing 101." Kinda sounds like the site and the project are an email address harvester suitable for a spammer. Also, I think the dot.com meltdown and implosion of free municipal wireless have adequately demonstrated that "free business plans" are an oxymoron.

I've done over 100 connections with a WRT54G router running DD-WRT which defaults to either 512 connections. cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_max If none of these connections are moving any traffic, then I probably could have tried even more than 100. However, when one or more starts moving traffic, the maximum number of usable connections drops rapidly. I guess we can call these "users". I use the following table for the max number of connections: 100 users doing light web browsing and email. 10 business users doing whatever business users do. 1 file sharing user. Ummm... I thought the AP-1000 and AP-2000 lines maxed out at 2048 connections? I"m too lazy to dig out the data sheet and check. All but the cheeziest junk routers sold today will do 256 max. What happens when you hit 64? MAC address table overflow? -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@cruzio.com 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 | |||||||||||||||||||

When he says "100 connections" in his advertising the assumption would be 100 unique laptop radios connected to a single WRT54G. I just don't see that happening. -- Paul | |||||||||||||||||||
