How far can I place a wireless camera from my router?

The distance you can place a wireless security camera from your router depends on your Wi-Fi signal strength, the type of router you have, and any obstacles in your home. Typically, most Wi-Fi cameras work best within 50  feet (15 meters) of the router indoors. Thick walls, floors, metal, or electronic interference can reduce this range.

For the most reliable connection and best video quality, try to keep cameras as close to the router as possible. If you need to cover longer distances or have signal issues, consider using a Wi-Fi range extender or mesh Wi-Fi system. A licensed technician can help assess your home layout and recommend the best placement for seamless coverage.
