Jack, the only thing I was able to find out about the range is in this article and is over a year old. I use mine at short range, and it's just as fast as my land line. It states in the article that they were able to get HDTV at 180 feet, and we don't use that kind of bandwidth when broadcasting, so I'm sure for our purposes, we can go further. Take in to account that there are other routers out there that can give you much more range, but this one will smoke them in upload/download speeds, and it is made for streaming/gaming!

Hope this helps.

One thing that I forgot to mention, is you should check and see if your system is running a 802.11n or a 802.11g/b conection. If you hane a 802.11n conection, you will see far better range, and speed, but if you have a 802.11g/b conection, it will still out preform all the G routers out there. If you decided to go crazy (like I did) you can also buy a The D-Link Xtreme N Notebook ExpressCard or the The D-Link Xtreme N Notebook Adapter , depending on what card slot you have, and it will make your system 802.11n will much faster speeds, and range.

This might be overkill, but I'm now running on Sparkcast, with the settings cranked up as high as it will go, without any lag time. I am only 15 feet from the router though.
