ELEVEN! ConfusedShock
Phones, tablets, Xbox, MacBook, desktop and sons Laptop. That's ridiculous! And DH isn't even home yet with his laptop, phone and work phone!

On the upside, I can now pause all internet to certain devices mwahahaha!
(yes, we could have done it earlier, but we have child safe on etc and I never got around to it!)

How many devices you yo all have connected to your internet?
