Router capability to support multiple devices
router

I recently purchased the Netgear MR60 Mesh router. I read that you can connect 25 devices. I currently have 14 devices and plan to add the Ring alarm system which will add another 20 devices. I wonder if having 45 devices connected will degrade the speed of the system. I wonder if anybody have any experience with similar situation. Thanks in advance.

    Hi @Jaime2. While I can't speak on the specific router you have, I did want to mention that most of the Ring Alarm devices do not use wifi to communicate. The Base Station connects to your router via ethernet or wifi, but the other components such as Contact Sensors and Motion Detectors use z-wave to talk to the Base Station rather than wifi. You can read more about z-wave networks [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001263166-Understanding-Z-Wave-and-Mesh-Networks). I hope you find this information helpful! :)
