I am using one from the lounge to my bedroom TV for satellite HD signals.

It is probably approx. 25ft distance and through ceiling/floor.

Signal strength is 4 out of 5 bars and the picture and sounds are perfect.

Hope that helps...

Just be aware of the frequencies these things operate on, they can kill your WiFi, try and get stuff that works up on the 5.8Ghz band rather than at 2.4Ghz where the majority of WiFi is.
