Number of users connected limited

[Praveen Gonsalves]

Hello,

The only problem I'm facing with 8266 is that the soft AP is restricted to 4, which means simultaneously only 4 users can be connected.
Please suggest what should I do if the numbers of users to be connected is more than 50.
Thank you

I think you might have to find a different device for that. Espressif says the limit for Soft AP is 4, but in mesh mode up to 83 nodes can be connected. No idea what you are trying to do, but having 50 "users" or people connected to most wireless devices would be a problem, in theory it may be possible-
