Just upgraded from C7000 version 1 combo to this router and I expected a bit more. Actually a slight reduction in speed. But my question is does the claim "supports up to 25 devices" limit connection to that number or what? I had and have 23 including the non wi-fi devices.

sorry, its only worth it if your speeds are LESS THAN 250mbps.
So if you have gig service, leave it disabled.

Re: RAX50 AX5400
where are you seeing "supports up to 25 devices"?
Do you have any AX devices? you won't really see a speed increase moving from AC to AX unless you have an AX device. It does have more consistent speed because its able to broadcast to more than 1 device at a time but it isn't necessarily going to be faster.

Re: RAX50 AX5400
You can have more than 25 connected device. Its basically just what their using to classify when to move to a bigger/better device.
IoT devices and lower bandwidth devices aren't going to use much data and hardly impact your system.
for instance, I was running a RBK53 system with over 50 wireless devices. But there wasn't much impact because around 15-20 of those were switches/bulbs/etc.

Re: RAX50 AX5400
It depends on what speeds you pay for. There isn't much benefit at >250mbps speeds.
