What is the maximum number of clients the WAX625 can support?
The WAX625 can theoretically support up to 256 clients, but actual performance depends on environmental factors and client types. For optimal throughput, it is recommended to limit active clients to around 100-150 per radio. WiFi 6 improves efficiency.
Does the WAX625 support VLANs?
