I assume you can’t have 10,000 mesh-only (Xenon) boards talking through one single Wifi connected board (Argon). 5:1? 20:1? 100:1? UPDATE Found this in the FAQs: Mesh networks are generally limited in size by RAM availability. The Nordic nRF52840 has a generous 256kb RAM and promises to support larger Thread® networks than were previously possible with other chipsets. However, until we’ve completed … --- _[View the full topic](https://community.particle.io/t/sending-messages-between-nodes-on-a-mesh/39585)._
