How many computers can be connected to the Internet using a wireless router?

I have a Comcast provided wireless router at home.

4 of us can surf the net with no problems. However a 5ht and a 6th computer cannot be used to connect to the Internet. Is there an upper limit on how many computers can talk to the Internet when one uses a wireless router? Or is there something we are doing that is not right?

Depends on the router. Most wireless routers have a setting for the number of IP addresses that the DHCP server will allow at one time.

254 with the default DHCP settings
Check with your broadband provider

You might need to get a better router
You should be able to connect all of your computers to the same router. Try turning off one or two of the computers you already know work to see if the 5th and 6th will connect. If they do then yes your router strangely can only handle 4. If it still doesn't work then you are doing something wrong in the inital connection. Good luck!
i belive its 5 for a basic brodband servace, thats what i have.
ideally, it should be able to give you 256 network connections...remember the ip numbers? normally 192.168.XXX.XXX the numbers go from 0 to 256 and the ip is given either by the router or the server, but in a basic router configuration is router.
