We are looking for this for our pool area- unfortunately our wifi is weak- how far away can we place from phone/iPad for connection?

It doesn't use WiFi - it works off Bluetooth directly b/n the speaker and your device. I had no problems with the phone in my pocket while walking up and down stairs, in and out of various rooms ... maybe 15 ft, but never tried for a max distance.

This is perfect for the the pool / beach area or anywhere else for that matter...great sound... It is Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi, so its the distance from your Bluetooth device and not your internet.

I'm not sure but my husband takes it to the golf course and I'm sure the wifi there would not be very adequate. He loves it and the quality of sound is excellent.

The signal seems plenty strong out to about 30'. Beyond that and you might start having issues. Of course, you're limited to the controls that the Fugoo supports unless you want to run back and forth to the phone to operate it. On the Fugoo itself, you have play/pause, next/previous track, and can initiate voice control for each of the platforms. That's enough to go through a playlist.

The manufacturer states the transmitter/receiver will work up to 150 feet. I have successfully used this speaker 100 feet away from the transmitter with 2 brick walls in between. Unfortunately, it does not work when I am at my neighbor's pool which is at least 200 - 250 feet way. That's when I plug my ipod or phone directly into the speaker and play my own collection of music or Pandora. Hope this helps.

The unifi inside starts dropping at about 35-50' when it hits walls and various normal interior house surroundings. My house is 120' long I set one in center and one on each end to get the phones that are the hardest to get to work properly. The issue is mostly with the device in use rather than the Unifi do not expect 300' to be a solution as most devices will never be able to talk back at that range. But at there price it was a steal to set up a real 1st class WiFi system.

your router has to be within 10-12 ft away, than it works. Results can be ~ deferent from router to router.

This did not work for us, we had interference from the WIFI system in the house. Returned the Leapfrog wireless systems. The distance was maybe 30 feet with a straight shot, no walls or doors.

Maybe if it's no longer than that. Mine was about 20 feet away and it keep dropping the Wi-Fi at night. The next morning I would have to unplug it and plug it back in to work.

unless you make a duplex directional wi fi transmitter antenna and duplex receiver or have a few signal boosters along the way 2,640 feet is a little far for wi fi no matter how good the equipment. If you go line of sight no obstructions at all I have been at 400 feet. but i will not leave equipment out side to have that range.

Paul, I was trying to get full wifi out to my backyard which is only about 50' away, but my problem is I have steel siding on my house instead of wood or vinyl .So I positioned the extender at the nearest wall socket to my sliding glass door to to the back yard as to reflect thru the glass and not my siding. This worked, I didn't have all bars showing but I had the wifi ok. Your standard wifi router (N) should get you at least that far without the extender, standard structure house wood of vinyl siding of course

My device is in the middle of my house. I would say about 25 feet is the effective range

I've never tested out the range on it when I measured distances. I use it to turn my pool pump off and on when I'm vacuuming the pool. I know it'll work through an aluminum deck and across the pool (28'). I'd guesstimate that it's range is at least twice that, maybe more. It's a radio based transmitter, so it should work through walls, etc. I have my outside sockets on inside switches but if you're thinking of using this for holiday decorations I'd say it's worth a shot. Good luck!

Hello I talked to my neighbor (I have this system but he knows more about it) he said if you cannot pick up a signal anywhere in your house as close as you can get with your Ipad then it's questionable that you could use the extender because it has to have a signal available to use. So the extender has to be placed in a straight line from your mom's modem for it to pick it up and as close as you can get the D-link in your house to your moms. I don't think it will work but ask For product support visit http://support.dlink.com I switched to Netgear available at Best Buy for around 70 dollars works much better because the support is in fan configuration instead of the D-link straight line. Hope I helped.

internet is a 2 way communication so both device needs to have the power to connect. the Nano signal will go for about 23Km but the ipad will not be able to connect at that distance. most device will connect up to about 100 feet or so depending on the condition.

I didn't use it to replace my router. I used it as a repeater. I have it placed about 35 ft from my router and have my wireless devices sync with my Amped wireless. I can go outside of my home across my yard and pool area and use my wireless device. I can stream movies and my sling box to watch TV on my i pad. I also have the highest U- verse. The signal strength is excellent.

Has your neighbor granted you permission to use his Wifi? This arrangement will work, provided that you get a strong enough signal. I had the very same arrangement at our lake cottage (neighbor used my wifi), but our lake lots are only 25 feet wide and my router is about 20 feet away from his Cyberstat. He eventually got his own Internet as his kids wanted Netflix. Good luck.

The device (wifi connection) worked fairly well, as long as the distance between the iphone/Ipad/macbook was less than 12 feet away. I have had it for 2 years and now it wont even connect anymore. It had a one year warranty, so----- now it's junk. Pioneer wont give me support nor a replacement.

I would not recommend going wireless for this distance with all that metal in the line of sight. Tried on shorter rig and kept losing the signal.

Hello - I find using this device very sporadic .. meaning my wifi kicks out every single day.. if I am away from unit say 100 feet - I am NOT very happy at all with the performance - BUT I say this .. not knowing if it is in fact our main router - although I did have another much less expensive device that I used (Securifi Almond-Touchscreen Wireless Router extender) and that worked so well .. but it was not meant for the outdoors. I wish I had done a bit more investigating .. for the money spent .. I am not happy ..sorry ..
