Widest range wireless router?

4 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/widest-range-wireless-router.61918/

Could someone recommend the widest range wireless router to be used for internet access in a large house? Around 1500 sft into 2 floors. I already tried to use a Dlink DI524 wireless router with a DWL2100AP in repeater mode. Didnt work for me despite various attempts with Dlink support for many months.

Now I dont mind dumping this pair and going for an alternative that works.

Thanks for any inputs.

Its given in the specification that this router can catch a wireless lan at a distance of 1/4th of a mile and hear the same another router at a distance of even half mile away.
This should b sufficient to you I guess. But I don't know about its availability in india...

yeah it all sounds great but you need to remember interference. I'm sure D-link explained to you about this. the repeater causes interference as well. there are a lot of things that generate a 2.4 Ghz frequency. do you live in a large populated area? how many of your neighbours have wireless connections? sooooo many factors!!! Also I believe that is one of the older D-Link routers ( I know cuz I have one kickin around somewhere), is there a particular reason you want wireless as apposed to wired (which would be faster then wireless)???
