how far away can each base be from each other to still work?

As they said these are power-line intercoms, It should go far as the power-line in the house goes. But the wiring at the house needs to be all grounded. Even if one outlet is not grounded, you will have to do the setup steps base on their user's manual. This is what happened to me. So far I am happy with it. This sellers has a lot of useful information on their page. Make sure that you read them or check with the manufacturer (seller) directly. The made this intercoms, they should know better

Depends on distance. A single unit will go far, but 2 units will go further.

Yes, I'm not sure of range limit! I've done it from about 1.5 blocks ! I'd say it would probably be good up to 1/4 mile tops! But I can't verify that!

Yes it's just how far out from the base you want it. I had to lessen mine because of the road. Great product can't complain

You do have to take them pretty far away. I go about a half mile and it seems to work.

What kind of radio setups are you running? What kind of terrain between you? IF you are on relatively flat land, it will still take some wattage for reliable communication. Also the antennas should be about 40 ft. at the base.

Yes, the instructions are specific about this. Mine is about 60 feet apart. System works great for me. Highly recommend for fringe cell phone service area.

I would say no. If you can reach them, then you can easily unplug and remove them from base.

Sorry no you can not. The system works well only if the units are next to each other. Meaning a few inches. The ad stated up to a hundred feet, not true. I returned the system back to vender(at my own cost)

Hey Buddy, Both of mine worked from over 50 feet away. Depending on the terrain, i usually get anywhere from 25-40 feet all the time. A great buy for the money. I am very pleased. Be safe.

It depends if you purchase the range booster. Mine work between the house, barn and garage but all the buildings are in a 100 foot radius of the base station.

The connection will be weak at best. To do it right use the HAWNR3 router in the brick bldg and us a HW2R1 repeater in the concrete block bldg. Then install a directional antenna on the exterior of each bldg and aim them at each other. This the configuration I use for a 275' distance and it works great!

Mine are only 50 feet apart. I suggest that if u can work off the same circuit, they should work fine. Call them.

Not far. I would say when about 10-15 feet away in the same room, 5-6 feet in separate rooms divided with a wall.

I'm not completely sure, but we have ours about fifty feet from the house where the base is located. The two units need to face each other; we have them about thirty feet apart. The first alert (from Amazon) was returned right away because it didn't work. The second one (again from Amazon) failed after about six months. It was under warranty and repaired quickly by the manufacturer. Even with these incidences, we are pleased with the product. The Dakota Alert customer service is very responsive. The alarm sound gets your attention without being overly loud.

a hundred feet or so -- depends on how many walls and other things might be causing interference..

Under perfect conditions I have picked up towers close to 50 miles away. Very reliable for towers within 35 miles. Mine is mounted in a single story attic.
