Will having multiple IDLE devices connected to a router still slow it down?

Asked by futurelaker88 (1600points) December 30th, 2013

If i have say 10 devices in the house that all connect to wifi, does leaving them connected slow down the internet for active devices even if they are idle (asleep)? Or does it only matter how much bandwidth they are actually using at the moment?
