As the topic says, my router is supporting only seven devices at max.
I have 3 laptops and 5 android devices. Till seven connections, everything is OK. But as soon as i connect 8th device, all the laptops get disconnected while android devices remain connected.![]()
I think according to the documentation, this router is supposed to support 10 wifi connection??
Any suggestions?

I don't think there is a limit of 10 devices - usually it's said to be a theoretical limit of 256 devices.
Does it happen when either of the devices is connected at the 8th one or is one particular device cause it?
Can you connect the laptops (or at least one of them) via an Ethernet wire (and disable its Wi-Fi for that time) to see if the problem will manifests itself with 8 devices total or only with 8 devices via Wi-Fi.
Make sure you have the most recent firmware - if not update. Mind you there are 5 hardware versions of this router so check which do you have.gull_s_777 likes this. -
It's a V5 version hardware. -
Ok, there was another firmware update available. Came out few months ago (140627).
Updated the firmware and it is working now with 8 devices connected.
