The transmit power of your access point and client card can greatly effect the range. It depends with surroundings such as microwave ovens or4 GHz phones. Refer to the Wi-Fi Alliance web site for more information.

The distance that you can be from your router varies greatly with each different router, wireless adapter, and the environment it is placed it. The actual distance varies depending upon the environment.

Typical indoor ranges are 150-300 feet, but can be shorter if the building construction interferes with radio transmissions. Longer ranges are possible, but performance will degrade with distance. Outdoor ranges are quoted up to 1000 feet, but again this depends upon the environment.

Wireless is a two way system, both the Access Point and Client Device must be communicating at a equal level before a wireless connection can occur. You may get less than that if you have thick walls or unique construction.

Get rid of any interference.

-> Devices such as cordless phones, microwaves, and ham radios can cause interference with wireless networks because they emit strong radio signals.

-> It isn't easy to network computers across a larger or more obstructed space. Most wireless access points have limited range. Obstructing their signals with pipes, cables, metal furniture and you will have problems getting a good connection where you want one.
