What's the wifi range like? Can I check on my car from the bar or down the street, for example?

Do not buy this unit. It runs very hot. Mine burnt out in a month. Sometimes it was too hot to touch.

All I know is that it has a wifi card. And mine was missing the antenna so it had very little range.

The gauntlet connects to your phone by Wi-Fi as it's an access point, like your wireless router. I'm not clear how your phone connects to your car's stereo, but if it's a headphone jack you should be ok. Whether your phone can do data and Wi-Fi at the same time might be an issue

Its better for you to checkİt from the internet. I've just bought it because i thought its a newer model. But i dont recommend it to you though. İts giving signal to everything. If you listen to this radars signals you cant even eide a mile.

You must go to a wifi spot. Some bookstores, some fast food places, some libraries are hotspots. You can also buy devices which tell you if a wifi hotspot is nearby and usable. Try Wendy's, McDonald's, or Barnes and Noble.

It varies, guess it depends how strong your wi-fi signal is from your phone, I have been in the house and car parked in driveway watching live video. At other times you could be in the vehicle driving with the phone 2 feet away and it drops out. I bought one and rear camera connector is cheezy be real careful when you plug it in. I emailed company several times and heard nothing back

Dear Paul, the wifi range depends on environment around. Some home appliances will affect it, like oven/fridge. we would advise wired connection, if for long time video recording or surveillance. And you may also try powerline adapter, it can help solve range issue effectively.

I'd say about 30 feet. I used it on my porch and in my bedroom. They are about 30 feet away where I park. Thing is, the Wi-Fi turns off when it's not being used and you have to go out and tap the side to turn it back on.

http://www.freedompop.com/coverage make sure you UNcheck 3G and 4G LTE, only WiMax should be checked. I had a weird experience driving from SF towards Bakerfield. Had a signal on most of the I-5. Coming back I had -no- signal... finally worked out that southbound 5 ranges from 8 to 40 feet higher than northbound.

Be sure you got the V955, set in BandsDFT it pick up everything. Even cops outside of car taking a piss.

I think it is close to the same, but I travel a lot with varying signals and WiFi and factors that make it hard to track which is better. Definitely not bad. Hope that helps.

I get great reception throughout the house and I have the router in the basement, but we are about 25 feet with full bars, but 40 to 50 yards seems far, I also bought a Amped wireless which claimed 20000 ft., which I returned, because it froze and didn't accomplish what was promised: Distance and functionality.

There's a installation disc. Then it lets you know of all the open wifi in the area & you can lock onto one of them. Or if you use it on your own wifi you can increase the distance from your home & yes the bars will increase

The range will vary for example the antinna is top middle of the windshield you will get about 100 to 200 yards but you may get longer depending if there is any interference for example wifi may interfere or other signals

Try looking into repeaters. I'm guess that would be your best bet.... Or you can go with the Alfa 1000mW 1W 802.11b/g USB Wireless WiFi Network Adapter With Original Alfa Screw-On Swivel 9dBi Rubber Antenna. I've used it and your distance shouldn't be any problem for this puppy.

It does not. It must use the satellite antenna that is comes with and if using in the car, you need the car kit. It will also work with wifi. The antenna works pretty good outdoors, but is extremely poor for indoor use unless sitting on a window that points towards the satellite. Wifi works great.

I live in a 2100 square-feet home, I receive 4bars Wi-Fi throughout my home. I can get 1 bar WIFI signal on my cell phone when I am about 100 yards away from the nighthawk router.
