how far can you be from your wireless internet device with this tablet?

I brought two tablets for my kids so it was mostly used around the house but was good at picking up wifi at hotspots. Would strongly suggest getting a case for it though. It only took two times before my son dropped his & it broke. Not the most durable.

We have mainly used the WolVol tablet within residential places. We have never had a challenge maintaining an Internet connection. When we initially received the tablet, I set it up at work. I was able to successfully use the tablet. The wireless device there is housed in a separate building. I hope this helps!

My wifi is located downstairs and the kids can be upstairs on the other side of the house with no problems. haven't tested exactly how far they can go, but hope this helps!

i returned it. it kept freezing up and was un-usable for what i needed. more work trying to use it than ability to actually use it

Don't think its too far. Maybe 30 to 50 feet in an open space. Never tried distance since I mostly use it in my car or in just one room. Its well built. Better wimax reception than any freedompop compatible phones. Starts up and connects in about 1 min.

I may be wrong but I seem to have read somewhere coby tablet will not support this. What I have done is I have turned my cell phone into a hotspot and can then use internet with my tablet anywhere my phone has coverage, which seems to be about everywhere so far.

This tablet does not have a USB connection, thus it would not support a USB device, or the drivers that are typically required to make it work. A wireless hotspot would work best, but if you are having Wi-Fi issues, it most likely would not change fix the problem. Perhaps a reformat (master reset) of the tablet would solve the issue.

Not sure. We got rid of the tablets. One broke and never got whole of ANYONE in customer service, and then the other one would not stay connected to the internet.

The flying range is approx. 3000 feet. The Wi-Fi viewing range with your phone is only about 300-400 feet, but that can be extended with a Wi-Fi booster.

Hello - I find using this device very sporadic .. meaning my wifi kicks out every single day.. if I am away from unit say 100 feet - I am NOT very happy at all with the performance - BUT I say this .. not knowing if it is in fact our main router - although I did have another much less expensive device that I used (Securifi Almond-Touchscreen Wireless Router extender) and that worked so well .. but it was not meant for the outdoors. I wish I had done a bit more investigating .. for the money spent .. I am not happy ..sorry ..

The tablet has a Wi-fi connection. You can access internet anywhere there is hot pot and wireless connection available..

if you have a long usb cable you can be ten feet or so away. the wireless usb doesn't work.

no. I do not think so. I believe these tablets only connect wirelessly to the internet

I get around 20 feet. Of course, this would also be dependent on the device it is paired to.

You do not need an internet connection. In fact, there is no internet connectivity with this device. This means you can not turn up the cabin's heat, hot water, etc. from miles away. The range of the unit, in my experience is less then 100 ft., but some receiving devices can act as repeaters to extend the range.

You can access the internet with a tablet like this anywhere that there is a wireless hot spot (wi-fi), which nowadays is practically everywhere, without paying for it (coffee shops, hotel rooms, etc.). You will not be able to use the internet at home if you do not already have internet service set up with a wireless router there.

That's incredible that the most expensive tablet now A DAYS DOESN'T HAS THE gsm/sim connectivity. That reduce the capacity to use it outside the WiFi range, besides the waste of the GPS function!!!

Be careful. Any extra radio devices can cause Wi-Fi on the rikomagic to longer work correctly. I'dday you could get 8 to 10 feet, but don't expect more.
