This router could cover a 2 floor house? Or I'll need other device

Yes and no, yes if no interference but if it is depending home structure and lay out as well.

I don't believe so. My father's frame is on one floor of his house and the router is on another.

Signal in split level house through 2 walls and about 50 feet drops to one bar on an iPad 2. Often drops signal. Netgear dual band wireless router was much better.

Agree with "no one answer" answers. I have two of these because I have 10 foot wide masonry fireplace in the middle of the house... no one spot gives full coverage due to the inevitable blindspot. At my daughter's home she gets coverage throughout her two story home with the router in a corner of the first floor.If you have a frame house and the router is fairly centrally located it should work fine for data. If you are trying to serve video the end device will be the limiting factor for range and reach.

TJ,If your router is serving DHCP, and private address space (192.x.x.x) you will have 256 -2 address' available, I don't think you will run out,,,

I use it as an extender from my router near my computer. The extender is 3 rooms away and with both gives me coverage on 3 floors including the basement of my large house. I am happy with it, but next time would probably buy a more powerful one (more $$$ of course).

I don't think I would provide enough coverage for that much area. Might need two,

Absolutely yes, I have that setup in my house now. Just a tip, use the second router as just an access point. Don't let the second router assign local IP addresses. I followed the instructions in this link http://www.tested.com/tech/298-how-to-use-an-old-router-to-expand-your-wi-fi-network/

I have a garage about 30 feet detached from the house. This router would not reach with a usable signal very well.

We have a two and a half story house. I have the Amped about 4 feet from the router on the second floor which is near the center of the house horizontally and vertically. Near the router, I use the router's wi-fi signal. Farther out on the second floor, on the first floor, and the third floor, I use the Amped's signal. This setup works great for me.

That is exactly what I did. It sits up stairs in the middle of the house. Router is downstairs at one end of the house. I was having issues getting wifi upstairs to the opposite side of the house. Now I connect to this instead and have no issues having great wifi upstairs or downstairs. Can have issues if portable device is attached to upstairs(this device) and device is on opposite floor. This has not been an issue for my family of 5 or our devices. Works great!

You'll want an outlet somewhere in between the two locations that you can install the Extender. My router is downstairs. My bedroom is upstairs and down 3 rooms from the stairs. I placed my Extender in the hall after the first room and I have excellent signal in my bedroom from it.

The way this item was advertised was as an exceptionally powerful router, which in reality it is not. It is such that I am not using it since the router supplied by the ISP is more powerful than this item. I don't think it will solve your problem specially if your home is built of concrete. The item I received is a plain Belkin N600 Router

Our house is 3000 sq ft. The router is on one corner of the basement, and the bedroom on the opposite side on 2nd floor. This was booster we needed for coverage in that bedroom. It also improved the TV streaming on the second floor as a nice by product.

The square footage doesn't matter. What matters is distance plus obstructions. A G-band router should have a range of 150 ft or so, an N-band about twice that. In the "real world" that can be cut short by a lot of things like brick walls and metal panels. If you have trouble maintaining a connection, and you can't move closer, maybe you need a "Wireless Repeater" or "Range Extender" that you can place about half-way.

It all depends on your router. I had to go to the APPLE Airport Extreme because my home is three stories.

I believe that should work. The 1 to router would make the rest of your outlets "live". The other 5 should just be acess points.
