How many depends on what your using it for.. if I was constantly doing
huge filetransfers over it and had several people doing it, then you
wouldn't support many users.  Point is, whatever one person does
(affects the entire bandwidth to other users) no matter the device. Be
it a wireless router, wireless router/adsl modem or wireless access
point.

WAG54G = wireless router/adsl modem all in one
WRT54G = wireless router (with wan ports to add ADSL or cable ethernet modem)
WAP54G = wireless access point.

Atm I am not using my WRT54G. Its been turned off since I finished
tinkering with sveasoft firmwares. Not sure if I will use it or not
any further. I may end up giving it to my wifes parents to use with
the billion 711ce I will give them when house is finished being built
and adsl is connected. As then i can use the wireless side of it when
our powerbook is with us. Sounds like a plan to me :)
