98se ics networking

I have a question. I have read that the limit of the se ics is 10 users. is this true. If it is I have been running for over 2 years with it supplying internet to over 50 PCs and maybe 10 Macs. Granted I am using static ip addresses. Maybe the limit is with the dhcp server in ics? (I know this is probably a scary thought to most of you but this company does not like to spend money especially on the internet.) The clients run just as fast as the ics machine. I maybe have to reboot it every few months. and usualy It doesnt solve the problem as it is a problem with the isp

just wondering

I have never read anything about a 10 user limit with ICS of any flavor. And based on what it does and how it works, I can't think of any reason there should be such a limitation.

I can imagine some speed issues if you have several hundred PCs trying to work the same internet connection all at once and maybe some time-out problems.

I'd say that if your present arrangement is working OK for you, no need whatever to change anything. It obviously ain't broke so why "fix it".
