My elderly mother's house is approximately 100 feet from my house. I want this in case she needs me and cannot get to the phone. Will this work?

No, that's too far. The two previous answers by others both describe the outdoors with only one wall (at most) between the monitor and receiver.

It should....we used to take ours to our neighbors house for Bon fires on the weekends and never had an issue with range. We were obviously outside so it only was going through our house walls and our sons room was on the side of our house closest to our neighbor so that helped. Going through 2 sets of walls will reduce the range more than 1 set, but I'd definitely try it, if it doesn't work, amazons return policy is great!

We got this for our son and daughter-in-law who have an acre and a half lot. It works fine over the entire area.

Yes. The range is terrible. It might as well need a cord. I sometimes wish it would have the option. I was aware of the issue and I disregarded it since my phone wouldn't be too far from it ever.

It may, but I can't say for sure. Most any security systems use land line as does this one. This plugs into the phone jack. I use land line service with this phone so I can't verify. I also agree that this item works really sweet as advertised. Regular phone & motion detector remote dialer. Well worth the money.

I had little success communicating outside the walls of my one-story home. I wouldn't count on being able to use the voice communication beyond about 50 feet. Fortunately the "buzzer" call-signal worked for us.

100 ft is a stretch but if the antenna is towards I think, think being the key word. I use mine to turn an electric game call that's wired to a 12 volt tractor battery on & off from a distance. I've run it at around 100ft but sometimes I've got to click it numerous times & move the remote around in the air. With my application I can tell instantly it if work (i.e. Sound). My advice if you're going try it would be to also wire in a small light or LED to tell you if your pump is on or off.

I believe the Range Extender is designed to work with the native phone frequency. The Cell phone has to remain within 10 to 15 feet of the base unit or the voice transmission will be very intermittent

I don't think that will be a problem for you at all. We have a smaller house but live on several acres and I have been probably 20-30 yards away and still had reception. Just watch the battery. Keep it plugged in unless you need to walk off

Yes I have done that. It works but remember the CB radio wave length works best when there is no obstruction. A straight shot to the other unit. Also, you only have about 5 miles before you loose contact with the other CB. It's not a cell phone by any means.

Yes, this will definitely take care of your needs. It will likely provide a strong signal no matter where you are in your house. Quite easy to set up and works great!

Based on your question and for what my mom tells me about the device. The answer is yes. She loves the idea that she can hear the phone ringing from as far as the front patio --14 feet away. The audio is clear when I call her using my cell phone.

I never tried it from a distance. If you make any changes on your router you have to resync the system with your phone. I would get a digital key that opens the garage for your maid.

Theoretically, yes. It should work as you described here. But be aware of the limited range of remote control. About 10 ft, in my case.

It won't work, as there is a limitation for transmitting the signal over power line. but you could share the wireless signal if you could get the neighbor's signal or if they could get yours.

Just yesterday my grandson noticed that he had signal 2 blocks away, driving away. There was a large brick building between us and the house. If you have lath and plaster walls, that might reduce your signal a bit. I'd guess it will work just fine.

bought this for my father, who is 97 and lives 400 miles away from me. he has a large living room, sits about 35 feet from the TV and it works fine, but he doesn't walk around with it. My guess is it will work for you.

It will work on land lines, there isn't an answer button, and the range is somewhere around 100 meters open air.

Yes if you have wifi .idont know exly how far but it worked from down stears to upstairs for me .one cool thing you can get a app and print off your phone
