I contacted Telewest for some guidance and was told that the Access Point can one device. Is this true ? According to NetGear website the ME102 can handle upto 32 devices ? Is there something that Telewest need to do at their end to allow multiple devices access through my connection ?
I would appreciate any suggestions.

It can handle 32 devices over a network but not for sharing the internet connection. To share the internet connection you will need to replace your access point with a router (same thing really only the router can share the internet connection on top).
