will it work between houses?

I've never used it more than 100 feet away so I'm not sure. All I can say is it works well between floors. I've been two floors above my mother in our building (an older brownstone) and it works just fine. Otherwise, as the previous responder said, you might have to contact the manufacturer.

I guess that depends on how far apart they are and what is in the walls, etc. The monitor here is in a separate garage apartment and the receiver is at the opposite end of our house. They are at least 100 feet apart. The system has worked great for us.

I believe the information stated the caregiver could have the caregiver's "box" 100 feet away and it would pick up the signal, but I had seen elsewhere that it could reach as far as 300 feet. It would probably be best to contact the company about this. I will say that it is very sensitive and adjustable in positioning. I was amazed at how well it works. Good luck!

Yes, as long as you have a DSL modem. This is a router. It goes between your (cable/DSL) modem & your 'puter.

I doubt it, Seems as tho it works best on line of sight basis. Also would depend on house wiring and metals between the floors.

I have not tested my new one further than the mailbox across the road. My older one, same brand, (in a basement) worked all the way around the block when I tested it. As long as there are no barriers I believe it really would work as far as it says it will.

I have not tried this configuration, but, this product acts like an ethernet cable using your home power. As long as the units identify themselves to each other, I think it might work.

Yes, you need two or more of these. These are especially good for house to house since they transmit and receive a relatively long distance. Regular so-called wireless intercoms depend on the house electrical wiring and do not often work if the units are in different houses. Remember, since these transmit over the air, your communication can be monitored by others who use the same channels within a few miles.

Hello Mark, I am not sure if it will work. There may be a "frequency issue" built into the unit, meaning that there is "protection" built in so one unit does not control another unit next to it. You will have to buy another unit and give it a try. Mike

No. This system is designed to go over the electric wires in your home. I supposed it could technically, but all three homes would need to be on the same power circuit. Maybe for a compound, but not for homes in a neighborhood.

Have not used my unit that way. But if unit made for one structure I doubt if signal can penetrate one exterior wall to enter the wall of another house. That just my opinion.

It could work from house to house, but not across a street because of the need to be hard-wired..

Mine works on my roof to 3 houses down and across the street to another house I own. Approx. 600ft with no issues.

Uses in house wiring that gets the type of wireless connection, connecting to two separate houses I doubt if it would work. This product is great but doubt can be used in two separate house, check a wireless unit that should work. Or go to the Intercom Central site look up handbook it may be in there, I still think you need a wireless intercom, but some folks may hear it also that why this is the way to go. Hope this helped..

I would think so as long as it is receiving the wifi signal. We like ours a lot. We have two homes and take it back and forth.

It will mostly depend on your landlord's router. With a good one it should just reach. For anything that far though, I recommend setting up a wireless repeater.

Probably not. It doesnt work if I go outside in my garage (detached) and its right next to my house

If you are working off same circuit it will work fine. For example: My intercom speaks from the den downstairs, to my wife's computer room up stairs, in our two story house. The plugs on the other side of the den will not work. Those plugs operate on front porch lighting circuit. Intercom must be on or hooked up to same circuit.This house was built circa 1851 and the 1930s wiring was modernized in 1988.

It can be done, but the best results would be if the main router is in the middle of the house and you use an extender halfway towards each end of the house from the middle. That way, the extenders wouldn't likely be picking up on the other extender's signal, but instead extending the original router signal.
