What is the range of the wireless signal, how far apart can I mount these? I have a detached garage I'd like to monitor.

I have two that are about 50 feet apart and on separate floors. They connect. You will get less reception the more walls you have to go through as well as how thick the walls are. There is no designated distance because of these variables.

They are NOT wireless.....but I really don't know if such a thing exists either....but I love my set....mounted to garage and ran wire inside garage back to the stereo for connection. Good luck!

HI RAD, no I have the two units in the picture and have one installed at my front door and the other in my detached garage (about 125 ft. thru a building) Works great.

The cords to the antennas are about 3 feet long. As for wireless distance, Bluetooth reaches devices about 30 feet away so don't count on reception outside the room where you have your computer. WiFi reaches just about anywhere in the house. My system works great with the computer about 40 feet away from the wireless router, wireless n, even with the door closed. Your results will vary. If your router is wireless b or g, the performance drops off quickly with distance, walls, and closed doors.

It is not a wireless system. Both units are plugged into the power sockets in your home (or office) and the signal is carried through the wires. There is a blocking filter for the wall current at each end, so all the computer sees is the digital signal. So the range is the length of the wires in your home. HTH

I too live in a semi rural area, closest neighbor is about 150 yards away, I can get full signal on his wireless router. If you run Linux you can increase the power and it will go even further.

I use the wireless remote from inside the car and house to turn on the lights in my garage and/or my out building. Range varies but it seems fine out to 125 feet depending on location of shielding materials (studs and wires). You might want to combine the switch with a Heath/Zenith SL-6019 wireless motion sensor system to give you control of lights inside and/or outside the garage. ... approach garage and external light(s) come on ... enter garage internal light(s) come on. Place a base station or two inside the Cabin and you can get an audio alert of events. ... a simple, local, motion alert and lighting system.

I did not try them from any great distance. I just needed the wireless capability. I only tried from about 5-6 feet. It may be further, but I have no experience with that.

I have a garage about 30 feet detached from the house. This router would not reach with a usable signal very well.

I have a 2800 sf house, with the router place in the room above the garage mounted on a wall vertically. The single to the other side of the house is ok, 52mb out of 145mb. I will be installing a shelf to mount horizontally to try getting a better signal, just have not gotten to it.

The signal range is way over 30 feet. Mine is about 20 feet away and through two walls and my signal is fine. The only trouble is that, after two months, the adapter was suddenly unable to connect to my wireless network. This could very well be a user issue but, anyway, back to your question: Yes, it works awesome within 30 feet.

The alarms are loud enough to hear even behind a closed door. I have my furthest around 15 feet, it will all depend upon the amount of other wireless devices you have running as to whether or not it will interfere with the signal.

You should get signal within 100 yards,. but 150 might have signal loss or weak connection...

Note this is a wired remote signal repeater. Sounds like you a are wanting a wireless option, possibly.

My router is in to floor of my house and I'm using this on a desktop in the basement. I get 4 bars out of 5 signal strength. I would say it's about 50 to 60 feet distance between the two. Haven't tried any other distance

You can also purchase larger antennas for these cameras for just a few dollars. With the larger ones you should not have any problems and much cheaper than a wireless range expander.

I bought two units and placed them about 800 ft apart and have very good reception. They were purchased for a museum. I tried them out in nearly every room before I placed them. They are portable enough that one is carried about. No installation necessary.
