When you deploy a resonator to a neutral portal you are capturing that portal for your faction. It takes 8 resonators to complete a portal.
An individual player does have limits as to how many resonators they can deploy at a single portal. This does upgrades, believe me I tried.
Here's chart showing what an single player can do:
Player Level | Resonator Level | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | |
1 | 8 | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- |
2 | 4 | 4 | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- |
3 | -- | 4 | 4 | -- | -- | -- | -- | -- |
4 | -- | -- | 4 | 4 | -- | -- | -- | -- |
5 | -- | -- | 2 | 4 | 2 | -- | -- | -- |
6 | -- | -- | -- | 4 | 2 | 2 | -- | -- |
7 | -- | -- | -- | 3 | 2 | 2 | 1 | -- |
8 | -- | -- | -- | 2 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 1 |
I think this emphasizes the need for teamwork in both deploying and upgrading portals.
You do need to use some strategy in deploying your resonators.
First if you are going to be deploying resonators of different levels, do not place then directly next to each other. Try and place your highest level resonators opposite, or as far as possible, from each other. This applies to upgrading resonators too.
Next, place your resonators as far from the portal as you can.
The reason for these strategies is to help protect them from attacks. Even if an individual is standing immediately at one of your stronger resonators the residual damage to your other stronger resonators is lessened. The would be assailant may run out of XMP Bursters before destroying all of your resonators.
