I am picking up my wifi from my house to my shop ( where the cc x mile is located ) I am also able to see multiple signals from others some more than a mile away. The distance is about 500 feet and I am getting 5 bars in shop, the area is wide open space .

Of course it depends on the signal of the wifi but we use it on or RV and locate several wifi signal from businesses a mile or so away. Now this is when we're in AZ. and it's an open area. It brings in a lot of wifi from pvt parties also.

No, wifi only when you are connected to the same wifi network. You can also connect through your Android / Iphone while away from your house / wifi network

I had a WiFi access point and one of those on the back of a Foscam Wifi cam and I was approx a mile down the road with no problem. The range can be farther but it is line of site so if there a lot of trees or buildings in the way the distance will be shorter.

No, you must be connected to a network. It can EXTEND an existing range. Hope this helps.

You can only extend the range of your network with an AirPort or AirPort Extreme, unless you connect it with a cable to your router. Still needs to be closer to where you sit than the wireless router.

I don't know what you are looking for it to do. For me I have no Wi-Fi. But I now pick up several Wi-Fi sources around me and I get Wi-Fi for free. It may not work everywhere for everyone. It definitely works for me. Just plug it in the USB and pick up free Wi-Fi near you. It says yup to 5 miles.

Yes. My home WiFi signal is a cheapo Linksys and this little phone can acquire it from about 30 feet away.

Yes you can, if Internet connection is over 5G or it depends of router data transmitting.

Yes you can. It will connect to any router within it's ring. That could be 10 yards away or 100 yards away. It will even connect to your smart phone if you set it up as a hot spot.

Yes it should be perfect for picking up signals from farther away. I used to use mine at the RV Park. It is basically just an amplified wireless antenna receiver. It comes with a driver CD, which I just checked and it has a MAC OS 10 driver.

Yes you can. Wifi is a connection to your home network, many phones have wireless capability these days. It will keep you from using your data.

I have wifi at home and that is all I needed. If you have wifi you will be fine. Thanks

There is no such thing as a straight shot when wifi is involved. Range depends on a homes construction. If you want range this is not the item for you. Find a unit that has an external antenna. Even with an external antenna you would require a strong signal that is no more than 100 feet away for data transfer to work fluidly (without dropouts).

You just need a good signal from your carrier outside. Make sure you place in a central location inside. Works great. No internet required.

Yes. Although I don't usually use my phone for internet use, I have seen that there is access in areas of available wifi.

No you can put it far away from the router it just has to pick up the signal.

Yeah this can work once you have access to your router outside your network that this device is connected to and you should be fine
