Distance between APs

Hello,

Can anyone tell me what might be the max distance between AP's? 

I'm aware that there are a big number of factors that can make this change but just want to understand if this can be a suitable solution. I have to connect 2 AP's that are 3 brick walls away and 15 meters distance. 

Thanks

RR

Hi Rui!

 

You're correct, there are a lot of factors that decide this. All sorts of environmental interference can have a negative impact on any RF signal.

 

I have a GR10 about 10 meters from my desk, going through 3 walls, steel filing cabinets, and an oak credenza. It's at about -60 dBm, which is strong enough to support a mesh network.
