How much steam account's can be online per one ip.

[TheLocalFemboy]

Basicly me and my "friend's" want to go to my house and "play" games together.
How much of us can play safely without getting our acc's banned on my internet connection?

A crappy internet connection itself won't get you banned from steam.
However there are certain games that go down when steam goes down, and they consider it to be the same as just leaving.

Because of NAT (Network Address Translation) many people can and often do share the same IP address at the same time such as at dorms in university. I've had 3 or 4 computers running and using steam at my house at the same time no problem.

As long as you aren't doing anything too suspicious or illegal like fraud then it should be fine.

IPv4 addresses are not unique anymore. As there are more humans (8 billion) than IPv4 addresses (4.2 billion), ISPs have chosen to route users together on an identical IPv4 address. This technique is known as CGNAT.

Therefore, there's no limit on Steam accounts per IP(v4) address.
