[Server-devel] are NUC5i3RYH & NUC6i3SYH really limited to 12 WiFi clients??

[Anish Mangal]

FWIW, on an older 2nd gen NUC I also see max 10-12 connections on the WiFi.
I dont know if I have tried the latest kernel on that, so your finding is
atleast consistent with older gen NUCs.

Beyond that number of users, one should anyway consider a router.

Off the shelf routers like 701nd support around 15 users, but with openwrt
they have been reported to support upwards of 30.
