how good is the wireless performance and range?

The wireless is just plain awful. Apparently there is a faulty driver installed, and I had to do some digging to find a solution. In the end, this didn't work either. I am now stuck with an ethernet cord to my laptop at all times.

We live in a large, old house that has thick walls which dampen the wireless signal to the point that we finally had to install routers on the main level and upstairs in order to get serviceable speed on our devices. The camera is in my son's room upstairs, and the signal broadcasts without degradation of fidelity throughout the entire house, including the basement. While I have not subjected the camera to rigorous testing, based on the above, I would surmise that it has pretty good range.

I use a JacobsPart wifi Router in a mobile home from my son's wifi about 300' away (I cannot even pick up FM radio without an outside antenna). I get 3 bars which equals good signal. It works great. Of course I am not on the computer that much, but it works aytime I connect. And his home has aluminum siding to pass thru also.

WiFi is so dependent upon the obstructions and type of obstruction. Also so many things today use the 2.4 ghz frequency. So if you are all alone in the middle of no where vs in the middle of an apartment complex will impact your range.I do like this router and I think it will probably give you the best range. I did add a directional antenna and this improved the range. One last thing. Nothing beats wired.

If you are talking about wifi range its about the same as most wifi routers. Give or take 150' to 300'. Also depends on other factors but best case scenario is the range that I just mentioned. One other great thing about this router is with my air stick I tend to get better 4g communications with it. I have used this router with my Verizon stick and have gotten better range than if the 4g modem was used in my laptop only. I am very happy with this router. I use it quite a bit for work.

its range is pretty typical. 2.4GHz band is good, 5GHz band is about half the signal, but its a much higher band, and used when there's more congestion or wifi devices. i would say its normal range.

I actually have my router on the far end of the house. I don't have any issues whatsoever in the house and get full through put of my speed. I have had it several months now and LOVE it. Best router I have ever had. As I said....range has not been an issue and in fact my neighbor has complained that he gets a better signal from my wi-fi than his own in his house. LOL. Hope that helps.

I live in Naperville, IL about 40 miles from Chicago. I would check some other Best Buys. Just look on the side of the box if you see i7-4510 and WLAN: AC+BT4.0 its the newer model, the only difference on the cpu is about .2ghz on low end and .1 on the high end, but WiFi works perfect! and it is dual band

These things are flaky. As far as wireless I could get 6-8 reliably. Anything more than that and it tends to lock up and die. I would look at anything but the rv series from Cisco.

Range seems pretty good.... I've had the monitor with me all over the house and outside and have never lost connection

Dear Mamdouh Thank you for your question. It has a decent range. Works very well in 3 bedroom house. As far as the exact range and how it compares to others I do not know. I know it made my old HP dv6 laptop significantly faster then my new Lenovo Yoga. Hope this helps. Tnx

I have had no problem with this unit at all. It is on my home network (wired and wireless). The performance is very good so far. I plan to put my streaming video on the drive in a couple months so will see how that works. For now, great purchase

mine works fine with a wireless access point about 30 feet and two rooms away.

I don't know how far range can coverage? How many feet?How about wi fi speed for 5ghz and 2.4ghz?

Mine is with in 20 feet of my wifi router and gets about 50-60% signal.. it's not super bad, but it's not all that great either.

mine has great connectivity. i have no problems with my wifi connection. signal strength although sometimes are not good but this is due to the signal strength of the provider i connect to.

I have 35Mbps and it works fine. I was able to use it with a split Ethernet cable connection to my router also without any problems. I would advise against using a wireless connection based on my experience though.
