it should still be able to handle it, maybe the cellphones are just shitty clients?

just saying this because I had a netgear like that running 6 machines at once and never really had major issues that couldn't be solved

The cell phones could just be shitty clients guys :dunno:

That and sometimes routers and devices just don't mix well, and I can definitely see cell phones being on the shit list of many home networks.
