What are the Requirements for Wireless Network Devices?
How Many Wireless Devices Can I Connect?
The gateway cable modem serves as a wireless access point (WAP). The WAP
on the gateway cable modem provides wireless network service to multiple
wireless network devices. Contact your cable service provider for more
information on the maximum number of wireless network devices to connect to
the gateway cable modem in order to maintain optimal network performance.
What are the Requirements for Wireless Networking?
It is important to view the characteristics of the entire network and not just each
individual node. The theoretical distance between wireless network devices is
100 feet inside of a building, and 300 feet outdoors.
A number of factors can impact the practical limit of the network. Contact your
cable service provider or consult the documentation for your wireless network
devices for more information.
