Question

We have a multilevel home too. Downstairs you will find cathedral ceilings. Insulated walls and thick carpet. So there is some distance involved here. I have not had any problems whatsoever. Not one dropped connection. No one has had any problem maintaining a connection.

Assuming the walls are Sheetrock and not concrete and you don't live in a bunker then yes. Your probably safe for a few walls. As a test if you can see any of your neighboring wifi connections then you have a really good chance of seeing your new one.

As an I.T. person, I'm going to tell you it depends. Usually on where you put the router. If you can put it in the center of the house, you'll get better results. Remember that these routers have about a 300 ft circumference, so measure 300ft out in any direction, and that's the coverage area . The more walls it has to go through, the quicker the signal strength is going to go down.
