Qui,<div><br></div><div>As has been said by others, 40 maybe 50 is a good limit. Of course if you can restrict what clients are doing with the service either through bandwidth control, or by DNS or IP Address, you can probably go more. Even then, Facebook chat or simple wall updates, are a whole lot different from peeps uploading their 2MB photos or their 20MB videos to Facebook. Of course if you have 1000 users in one area, then you will want those 20 or so APs to managed by a controller - this will ensure more even usage of the available bandwidth. Also having dual-radios (2.4 and 5G) in your APs will help. Some of the wireless controllers (I know HP does) can steer associations to one band or the other (HP does it by delaying the less preferred one long enough).<br clear="all">
