I am searching for a solution to create a group of up to 50 clients at once.
Bluetooth is not an option because most of the devices just have Wifi.
Is there a mobile AP, which can handle so many devices?
Do you no another option?
That would be great

Is there a reason WiFi will not work? There shouldn't be any kinds of limitations on how many simultaneous connections are made over WiFi. If there are performance issues with this, then I may have to add an option to have the connections be UDP based instead of TCP based. In that mode, one tablet would basically just broadcast messages out to all the other tablets, but wouldn't track whether or not they are actively connected. So it would only support one-way connectivity, but it would scale much better with a larger number of tablets.

Android Hotspots can just handle up to 10 clients, as I found as a hard limit.
I'm searching for a mobile/battery powered device, because it is for marching purposes

I will give it a try with a mobile LTE WLAN Router.
Thanks for your answers
