Trying to use Fuse hotspot with my Ethernet network. I purchased a N600 wireless extender and hub
I have a sprint Netgear Fuse wireless hotspot that allows 10 connections.
I purchased a Netgear N600 wireless bridge.
My network has 15 devices connected to an Ethernet Netgear Hub.
I connected my hub to the N600 and made a connection to the Fuse.
Problem is all the devices that only need local access took all the IP slots on the Fuse.
Once I had everything plugged in the Fuse reports max devices attached. My first problem was I could not print because my printer was device number 11 and it could not connect. I had to unplug some of the devices connected to my hub and wait for the Fuse to clear non connected devices so the printer could connect.
Most devices only need local access like printers but once connected they take up one of the 10 device spots on the Fuse.
My old network used a wired/wireless hot spot that had an 8 device maximum but my entire network ran smooth.

Hello Rdr202
You may want to look for one of the Netgears cradles for Aircards which may be hard to find for sale but they can handle up to 20 devices. Dc112A or Dc113A
DC112A is available in Australia, Middle East and Europe via various ISPs and online retailers. This device is not compatible with mobile hotspots in North America.
DC113A is a retail product available in Europe via Amazon. It has been tested with some NA devices as it’s a retail product so customers can use it in North America. Compatible list can be found in the FAQ here: https://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/26864

I purchased the DC-112a and it didn't work.
Netgear support says I need a DC-113a
