I don't care about speed.56, 150, 300, since my internet connection is 20Mbps. range matters, Router is at opposite end of 1200 sq ft home. will work?

The square footage doesn't matter. What matters is distance plus obstructions. A G-band router should have a range of 150 ft or so, an N-band about twice that. In the "real world" that can be cut short by a lot of things like brick walls and metal panels. If you have trouble maintaining a connection, and you can't move closer, maybe you need a "Wireless Repeater" or "Range Extender" that you can place about half-way.

I can't really speak to the range of the adapter, because my router isn't too far off. I'd say you could probably get a decent connection if there aren't too many walls (and no bathrooms) in between you and the router. I can't guarantee that, though, sorry &gt;.&lt;

You should have no difficulty receiving an adequate signal within these parameters. You can also go into your modem settings and double the signal strength if you're not satisfied with the reception, simply find the URL for the "Advanced Device Configuration go to http://xxx.xxx.x.xxx" and type this into your address bar or contact your modem manufacturer for tech support. I have a similar setting and after doubling the signal output from my modem I have no problem even with streaming video.

Hi, For the price, the Netgear line of 54mbps routers should work just fine. There are faster WIFI protocols, but unless your internet is that fast you won't use but 10% of the netgear's bandwidthh (edit: fixed)

I would say unless you have metal studs or metal roof it should work fine for that area. Ours is right at 2100 and it is fine except in the far bedroom which is probably 25-30 ft. through sheet-rock, studs and brick from the router. It receives and sends from there but needs a lot of time which I think is due to resending of the data because of errors.

Yes absolutely it will work, there are other routers that do have longer range however

I'm not sure what the range is, but mine is on a different floor and about 30 feet from the router and it works fine

sorry-I don't understand your question-this is not a router-don't know how it would do for what you ask about-I suggest a router

My router and extender are in 2 different buildings roughly 150' apart. I can stream video without buffering and internet speed is very good. Been using this unit for about 5 years now. Setup can be a little confusing. Just check and recheck that extender settings match with routers settings. The smallest of adjustments make all the difference. Don't just use the quick settings. Use the manual settings to check.

It will mostly depend on your landlord's router. With a good one it should just reach. For anything that far though, I recommend setting up a wireless repeater.

I have these set up on opposite ends of a two story house, and on different circuits. They work well, but you will see a reduction in bandwidth. I am seeing on average around 150Mbits/sec with the units on different circuits. When they are on the same one it's closer to 350Mbits/sec. Still provides much more bandwidth upstairs than the wifi does.

your router has to be within 10-12 ft away, than it works. Results can be ~ deferent from router to router.

It depends on the size of your house and the location of the router. I have one of these routers in my house. It seems to be a good router but I did have to put in a range extender due to the router not giving a strong signal in my entire house. I have a 3 level home with the router in the lowest level and the extender on the main level. this made for the best configuration for me. Hope this helps you.

I am using this repeater and going aprox 250 ft away. The router is in an upper floor of a office building near my modem and it is going 250' to my house which would be like going up to the 4th floor of the same building. Try it.

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.

Yes you will need some sort of router, this will not affect your computer speed.

It's a gigabit router so will do 1G on wired connections, assuming you have gigabit capabilities in your computer. On the wireless side, I get between 72 and 150mps real world on my laptop which supports dual band N. Handles my 40mb internet connection just fine. Not sure about 200.

In my experience it isn't any different from most other routers - decent signal at 50-70 feet. Beyond that it goes down. You might want to think about a Powerline network to get high bandwidth to the farther parts of your home. An example would be Linksys Powerline AV Wireless Network Extender (PLWK400)

I don,t use routers. It will work but only at 300 baud. I would go for the 600b extender.
