The original P25 (with no suffix) had no limitation at all. BUT it would not
handle the load with more than about 4/5 hosts going through it. That is
why the FX was limited through the ARP table size to 4 hosts. This version
only bridges - no IP routing option. The PX only supports a single host (NAT).
The P50/75 have no limitations....as long as you bear in mind that the WAN
interface bandwidth is limited to 128K (ignore compression for comparison).
