It's not the ISP. The last modem/router we had could be set for
4-to-unlimited connections. Once properly set for "unlimited" we had
no probs. But that router went belly-up and was replaced by the cable
co. Unfortunately we didn't have enough computers present that day to
see if it would support more than 4 machines. The tech said that it
should support as many connections as we needed but we have since had
some problems when more than 4 people try to connect.

Hence my problem...I don't know how to check to see if the router is
set for only 4 connections (as the last one was before the tech fixed
it) I have looked thru all the settings for the modem/router but I
didn't find anything that seemed to limit the no. (with the possible
exception of enabling upnp and increasing the no. of "hops" above 4.
However, upnp is not enabled so I don't see that that should affect
the problem.

I haven't had a chance to check this yet but how few connections would
it limit you to? and haw wlould you correct that?

I believe the range was 192.168.0.01-.19 or something close.

I appreciate your input and if you have any more ideas about what I
could check I would appreciate it. Please note that I am rather
un-savy about much of this wifi stuff so if you have other suggestions
please dummy them down!

Thanks again,
