how far does the wifi connection go, in feet? null

I can tell you that in my house it was in my basement and my office is two floors up from there. It was not strong enough. I am having better luck with a Lynksys product. I have AT&T Uverse. It was also not strong enough for Netflix to run and my TV is on the floor just above the basement.

In my house, it does travel at least some 30 feet. My children can connect to it from their rooms, which are separated from it by one wall, and have experienced no loss in strength as compared to being in the same room as the router.

We have ours in one corner on the lower level of our house. It reaches through both of the upper levels, which may be about 80 feet total? But we have also added an extender because of other neighbor router interference.

This is a hard question to answer because of the variables. Your coverage distance all depends on what is between the router and the and device trying to connect there could be walls, metal, brick, and any other items that may create interference with the signal. Using a standard ranchhouse as an example, you should have no problem getting full coverage within the entire house and the surrounding property if the router is located centrally in the house. I would estimate about 75 to 100 feet radius.

My house is brick and I can get a decent signal out at the street, about 75 feet away. That's near a window though. All the way through the house, I can't get a signal in my garage about 60 feet away.

With my surroundings, I have coverage outside the house for at least 100 feet.

1000 feet line of sight, no obstructions. Depending on the materials, construction of walls and/or obstructions, this distance may be signaficantly reduced. Wi-Fi does transmit thru ferro-magnetic (iron) materials like metal doors or walls.

Although your experience may vary, I reach the end of range at about 200 feet. Regular house, no metal interference. but it does reconnect quick when back in range.

I would estimate the coverage is about 50 feet.

Excellent within 50feet, provided you don't have appliances directly in your path blocking the signal, or extremely dense walls.
