Here is an example of softAP configuration http://bbs.espressif.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=227.

You can change it as below, but it will take more memory.

Code:

 softap_config.max_connection = 8;


Thanks for your interest in ESP8266 !

It is due to the limitation of memory. ESP8266 soft-AP can connected to 8 stations at most.

You can set softap_config.max_connection = 8; then call wifi_softap_set_config.

Thanks for your interest in ESP8266 !

Here in the changelog it mentions the following
4.ESP8266 soft-AP can connected to 8 stations at most, softap_config.max_connection default is 4
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=481

Where does this limit of 8 stations come from? :? :?

Thanks :)
