You may be hitting a limit of the NAT in the router (basically the size of the state table), and not the number of IP addresses that it can handle. I use pfSense at home with two access points with over 50 devices at times and everything works well. My guess is the Asus RT-AX92U may be running out of ability to keep up with all the states of traffic in and out, but a modern device like this shouldn't hit a limit with just 50 devices. That being said, if one or more of those 50 items act as a server with connections coming in from outside, you could be filling up a state table with all the incoming connections. No promises on this, but it is a possibility. Look and see if the Asus RT-AX92U has an newer firmware or there are any notes about number of supported devices.
