@gailsmule_905391527133360 there are so very man many factors that dictate how far a Wi-Fi signal will reach. In the absolute most ideal conditions, 2.4G Wi-Fi will reach maybe 300 feet. Add walls and environmental RF interference, that number begins to drop considerably. Bump to 5GHz, it drops even more so.

@gailsmule_905391527133360 Install Netspot from Playstore on your Android smartphone and check the signal strength of your WIFI 2.4G and 5G bands at the location where you wish to install the camera. If it is less than -70dBm then you are fine otherwise you shall encounter communication issues.

• -30 dBm to -50 dBm: Excellent signal.
• -50 dBm to -60 dBm: Good signal.
• -60 dBm to -70 dBm: Fair signal.
• -70 dBm to -80 dBm: Weak signal.
• -80 dBm to -90 dBm: Very weak signal, possibly no connection.

This application allows you to check if your neighbours are using the same channels as yours and this will cause interference. You can change the channel from your router.
