Class B for hotspot

If wanted to make a large bridged network and i had more than 254 clients on a class C on my private side of the network, would it be ok to switch it to a
class b like 10.1.1.1 to 10.1.255.255 Subnet of 255.255.0.0

First - you’d never be able to make a wireless bridged network that large work - the bridge transmissions on a wireless network would kill your throughput…

That having been said… A class ‘B’ network woud be;

10.1.0.0/16 (255.255.0.0) would be 10.1.0.0 - 10.1.255.255
