Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity and the
throughput performance between devices decreases when the distance between
devices increases. Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is
generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances.
As a result, the typical indoor range of your wireless devices will be between 100
to 200 feet. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move farther
from the wireless router (or access point). Please see the section titled
“Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal Performance” in
this manual.
If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.
