It appears that the number of simultaneous connections that are possible may be device dependent: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3816...er-android
However, this post seems to indicate that you should be able to get 7 synchronous connections: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2115...to-android
My code has a limit of 8 connections, but from what I'm reading, 7 is the limit for bluetooth RFCOMM based connections, so that's the real limit. I don't think bluetooth will work if you need 9 connections (even if we could figure out how to get you past 3). So I guess we should go back to focusing on WiFi. Let me ask this - do you have a cell phone that can act as a WiFi hotspot? I've used my phone for that and it works well as a router between devices. That would also solve the internet access issue.
