Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/tzapu/WiFiManager/issues/311

might not be a good idea, but was thinking it might be wanted as globals.

  • ap user limit
  • webserver user limit

This will have to be an optional limit, however this "might" cause issues if sessions do not close out and a user is having issues and it refuses connection after dropped connections.

But it might be desirable to not allow users on ap and webserver when someone is already configuring, in case not using passwords, prevent abuse ?

@tzapu commented on GitHub (Feb 8, 2017):

it's a good idea, but i think the question really is, is it worth it?
configuration is really done quite fast and people should be using a password to prevent abuse so i'm thinking there are probably other issues to tackle before this becomes a real issue

Also worth noting the web server only handles 4 sockets.
