WiFi Range
I have the RBK50 system in my home. I have located the sat in a second floor room around 50ft away from the router. The connection between the two is fine. The sat is positioned on the outside ...
50 feet from the house is kind of out side great signal range. You seeing is what you get out of these home units. Ranges are designed for inside the house and depending upon building materials and such, range out side would be optimal up to about 20-30 feet. Usually wifi shuldn't be maxing out out side as foot print would interfere with other nieghbors. Granted there should be some singal outside, however the range will be limted as you go farther out. If you need additional range at farther distances, then you'll have to install a outdoor wireless AP for this.
