Is 70 feet from EAX20 too far for a good connection?
Hi,
I just installed a EAX20 with my R7000 and cannot get a good signal 70 feet from the EAX20.
The EAX20 is sitting on the inside window sill and it is about 4 feet from my R7000.
I have a direct line of sight from the EAX to my wifi analyzer and singal sstrength is around -60 dBm.

Thanks,
Harry
