Hi Steve,

You can have up to 128 client devices associated to an airPoint Pro
simultaneously. But in order to have better performance, bandwidth and
reduce congestion an average keep it lower numbers which is usually
about 50.
For the airPoint, the total number of client connectivity is listed in
the user guide's FAQ list. We will add into the spec also. Thank You

Seeni, SB support

Subject: [smartBridges] Max clients per APPO ? SmartBridge recommended
for covering a small community ? 

Hi all, while I'm new to this list, I did try going thru the archives to
find an answer for this, but finally gave up looking for the proverbial
needle in the haystack.

I see in the specs for the AirBridge, there is a limit of 64 client IPs
-
but the same spec is not documented for the AirPoint.

Q1. How many concurrent mobile WiFi clients can be supported by the
AirPointPro Outdoor ?

Q2. Also, would you recommend this product line to provide WiFi coverage
for
a small community ?

I'm expecting to create a central site (or network operations center,
NOC)
which has:
- up to 12 AirPoint Total (each one covering 30' of the circle around
the
building),
- a server capable of supporting roaming, optional IPSEC links, RADIUS
accounting,
- a server for managing subscriber accounts which integrates with the
above
server,
- misc. servers for DNS, DHCP, firewall, etc.
- back-end high-speed Internet connection.

The NOC would support multiple 'Remote Sites', each with
- an AirBridgeTotal that points towards the NOC
- an AirPointPro with an omni antenna

Q3. There may be times when the NOC is not LOS with the Remote Site - is
there any reason why it could not instead be pointed to a nearby
RemoteSite
which would act as a hoping point ?

Thanks,
Steve.
