Hi danpool,
About spreading out the wireless connection over an area, you will need to do RF planning. Kindly read pages 41 to 50 of the WC7520 reference manual here.
What NETGEAR ProSAFE Access Point model will you use with the WC7520 wireless controller? If ever you have WNDAP360 access points, according to the review I read online, it says that strong signal strength from a distance of 75 feet can be achieved within a laboratory environment. Here is the link about the review on the WNDAP360 access point.

Hi,
Thanks for your queries. You can also reach out to your NETGEAR pre-sales contact and they can offer a no fee service for remote site survey. When you send them the floor plan of your premise and inform them the type of wall constructions and environment, NETGEAR can provide a response with a complete remote site survey report with identification of the number of AP's you need and the expected coverage.
Hope this helps.
