Wi-Fi device limit
Is there a limit to the number of devices connected to the home Wi-Fi?
Eg tv boxes cameras lights plugs phones etc

I believe that Actiontec has a limit of 255 devices. Here is an article on that:

Realistically you will have bandwidth issues well before reaching that many devices.

- xrayHeroYes, the limit is the size of your dhcp address pool which is 254 which includes the ip address of the router. So 253 devices connected to the router.
