How Many DHCP Leases Are You Using at Home?

I'm just curious how many DHCP leases everyone is managing on their home networks. I currently have 25 devices connected, which surprised me since it's just two people living here. What about you?

I'm currently at 76 if we count all the IoT devices too!

I've got 43 leases, and it's just me and my dog. I enjoy home automation, which explains the high number since I'm self-hosting a lot of it.

I’m looking at 104 leases when including all my IoT devices and smart gadgets! Plus a few extra for outside and guest connections.

I prefer using static IPs for most of my devices, so I only have about 11 connected via DHCP.

I'm sitting at 50 leases right now. Not as bad as I initially thought!
