Does anyone know how many devices can be using this modem/router at the same time? Thanks.

4 wired (ethernet) devices plus however many wi-fi devices you can use at once.

I am not certain. I am using it for TV, desktop, two laptops. The other TV does not reach. I have a router to help.

4 wire (you may connect a switch or router to get more port). And 16+ wireless

Mike, while I am using just two boxes, there is provision in the manual for adding more devices. Section 4.2.2 describes the steps. Also, a graphic shows two devices using the same feed from the router. The manual was not written by a person who writes English as their first language, so a few items are not clear. As to the signal being degraded, if one was downloading video and the same time they were talking on Skype, there might be a problem. That is strictly a guess on my part because I have not tried it.

I am using the following devices with this router and 80Mbs cable broadband... 2 roku, 1 wdtv video streaming devices, 3 new model android smartphones, 2 heavily used pc gaming rigs, 1 laptop, 1 tablet,1 VoIP device, and a nook. Most of which are being used concurrently with zero problems. None. Very impressed.

What are you using the modem for? What's the Internet Services top speed? I have comcast plus boost running over 40 Wi - fi devices with no issues. If you are concerned, spend more for newer top of the line device.

You can use or two. I used two for two additional locations. Ended up sending everything back though. My cable is too old and has too much inteferance for really high speeds. My wifi did better.

I don' know , you should ask the seller, but yes, it is modem- router in one unit.

I don't know why someone wrote it's only a router because it's both. All I have is this one box and so many wifi devices connected to it. iPhones, roku player, amazon fire tv's, laptops, wifi printer, and an apple tv. Oh and Dlink wifi cameras too. I love modems with built in routers. I never had to use a modem and a router separately before. Wouldn't even know how to hook the two up. I guess I'll watch a YouTube video just so I could have a clue. But yes this one box is all you'll need. My internet provider is Comcast.

Yes, you will need two of them. You are exactly right one for modem and the other wherever you want. I will say it is better than wireless but don't expect blazing speeds.

I don't know how many can connect at the same time. I seen about 4 connecting. I have 12 set up.

To my knowledge it only sends one signal to two devices, I was hoping it could be used for two separate devices and have no luck as yet but am still trying...

Hi. This is a router only. Do you need a modem-router? Let us know and we will do our best to help.

It is said 8 devices can be paired at the same time. And only one can be connected. You can't use it with two devices at the same time.

There's a hard limit of 15 wireless devices connected at a time (http://www.amazon.com/gp/forum/cd/discussion.html/ref=cm_cd_al_tlc_cl?ie=UTF8&asi;n=B001FWYGJS&cdAnchor;=Mx1FVDUR7N0PCYX)

Level 3 Netgear support team (engineer) told me that I cannot use the 2 ethernet ports at the same time !!!

I don't quite understand your question. This is a wireless router. It has (I think 5) plugs for wired connections with the added capability of connecting to other things wirelessly. From what I've researched, having two routers is not a good idea. They will "fight" with each other to issue IP addresses and you have to do a bit of work to make one dominate and the other the slave. If the router you have is not wireless, then simply replace it with this router. I have a 2000SF house and have a strong wireless connection nearly everywhere.

I don't know about that modem/router specifically. But it should work with any number of routers. The router just sees it as another device on your network.

Hi BMcDuffey. Yes, you may use more than one Powerline device and install them in different rooms. Just make sure that it will be on the same electrical circuit with that one being used by the router.
