How many devices can you put in the MAC filtering table on a CAX30
How many devices can you put in the MAC filtering table on a CAX30?
I use MAC Filtering for all wireless devices but not wired so need to know how many devices I can MAC filter to allow them access. Any help would be appreciated. Any company I have called has not been able to tell me.

I hardly use it, however maybe limited to maybe 20 or so.
How many devices do you have?
Something to try out and see if and where you hit a hard limit...
My current one has 16-2.4 and 16-5ghz.
I am getting close to running out.
I dont do it for wired devices just wireless

Thanks. I ended up buying the CAX80 and am having an issue where my internet speed goes up and down. So from 400mb down to 30mb down, then back up. This is a continous issue and happens on wired or wireless device. It is brand new has has the latest firmware. I have turned a bunch of stuff off in it and nothing I have done has solved the issue. This happens in minutes not hours and I have not been able to pinpoint it. Concerned as I only have 30 days to return if bad or just inherant to this model. Any help would be appreciated. I check with ISP to see if there was something on their side. This has been going for almost a week. Since I first put it online last Saturday.
Which ISP are you with?
This happening on both wired and wireless devices?
How is the CAX80s wireless configured?
Channels being used?
