Hi, there. There's no specific distance and you no longer need any wires to install the unit. You just need to make sure that you place the extender midway between your router and the area without Wi-Fi and be sure that you have at least 50% of your router’s Wi-Fi signal on the place where you will set up the unit.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Should be fine. There is a light on the extender that will let you know if it is too far away or if it isn't getting the signal. My router is in the basement surrounded by 3 walls of concrete and a solid wood door and my extender is plugged in on 2nd floor. Works great.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.My distance exceeded the 25 feet and worked well
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.When you plug it in part of the setup process tells you the best range for it to be in. Mine is about 40 ft away and right next to a tornado shelter inside the building.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The unit should still boost your signal, it needs only be in the good signal of your router, you will not be physically connecting them. also the utility will tell you if you are in the optional distance from your router.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes 25 feet should be well within the range. Just know what the distance limitation of your router and any dense mateiral walls between. The initial setup "Spot finder technology" from http://extender.linksys.com will provide a big help in this placement.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes mine is about 25 feet away. It has made a big difference and is easy to plug in and set up.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It depend on your WiFi router's range, but 25 feet should be well within range.
