SputnikNet Features and Pricing
SputnikNet costs scale as you grow, based on the number of Sputnik-powered access points (APs) and gateways you "subscribe" to your SputnikNet account. There are three levels of device subscriptions: NMS (network management for range extenders), Standard (for Wi-Fi APs/routers), and Pro (for high-volume network gateways).

Please note:
- Neither SputnikNet nor Sputnik Agent firmware have per-user limits. However most APs tend to physically max out at about 30 simultaneous users. The Sputnik 750, which requires Sputnik Agent Pro, can easily handle 100 simultaneous users.
- Sputnik Agent NMS ("network management system") mode lets you manage range extenders for free. But you must have at least one Standard or Pro subscription assigned to your account.
- SputnikNet subscription volume discounts kick in after 10 APs or gateways.
