Is there any way to increase this? I assume this means maximum number of devices.

No. CPE means customer Premises Equipment, that the VM hub and you can only have one on each circuit. It has nothing to do with the number of devices on the LAN segment.

The CPE is the source MAC allowed for one WAN IP in modem mode you get just that in router mode (like many home routers to the hub in modem mode) you have many devices use 192.168.0.x to go out the one WAN IP.

VM will not increase this even for a business

What are you wishing to do that caused you to question the CPE limit ?

When I was with Telewest, there was a one off payment that gave you "Gaming" mode, Telewest then provided you with a netgear4 port hub allowing you two CPE. Merging with NTL stole that second connection and it never came back. That was back in the days when you had a cable modem, no dodgy hubs etc. What you plugged in after the modem was your own choice.

If you are a customer on a CATV cable connection or an RFoG connection, VM Hub (3/4/5) can be operated in Modem mode plus your choice Router / Wi-Fi Router / Router Mesh. 

Once in Modem mode, the VM Hub's Router functions & Wi-Fi are all disabled.

For a Hub the navigation is :
