Does anyone know how many devices the Archer D5 can realistically support?

I have sometimes 9 or 10 devices connected at a time (phones, laptops, Roku, printer) & I've noticed it crashes quite often & needs to be rebooted (with varying degrees of success).

When I say crash, I mean I can see the SSID in the Windows wi-fi networks list, but when I try to connect it says 'Can't connect to this network'.

Am I just pushing it too hard? And if so, what should I upgrade to? Or could I just get another D5 & bridge it somehow to the current one? That would be cheaper but potentially a false economy if the D5 is a bad choice generally.

cheers
