throttling devices on wifi c6300v2
Hi, I have a C6300V2 router I use it to access Xfinity wifi - cheapest version rated for 50 MBs My problem is that they only provide service for 4 devices but of course when you add up Google mesh,...
Yes, it is a limitation set by Xfinity so in a sense I can't complain because I do have more than four devices. On the other hand it handles all the devices most of the time so I suspect my problem is that one of the devices spikes up its demand occasionally which is why I am looking for a way to limit all the devices.

Thanks for the reply. I am just curious how Xfinity can reach through the one WAN IP address assigned to the router and to the LAN IP addresses assigned by the router DHCP to limit the connections to 4.
