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

 

Wireless Network Capacity…How Many Devices Can Connect to my WiFi Network? - Actiontec.com

 

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


Just a long time customer hoping to help.

Yes, 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.
