What is the range of a WiFi connection?

Question

Hello, please let me know what the range of a Wi-Fi connection could be; the sellers mention about ten meters, but I would like to achieve 20 meters. What type of equipment available on the market can achieve this performance, or how can I adapt the equipment for this distance? Of course, I am excluding interfering elements like concrete slabs, metal plates, and thick stone walls, etc. I am referring to a very large room without obstacles... the phone being 20 meters away from a router, for example.
Thank you

Well, the thing is, it's 100 meters all around in the fields, but if you put your computer in the kitchen and your Wi-Fi router in your bedroom, the microwave will mess up your signal, so it depends on the walls that separate you from your Wi-Fi point.

No problem. Still prefer models with antennas -- all things are difficult before they are easy.

Thank you "CHICHI, but it doesn't seem to me that you read the message carefully... which states "...I'm speaking in a very large room without obstacles..!" and before I specify "...I exclude disturbing elements like concrete floors, metal plates, thick stone walls, etc...";o) ...I don't understand the response... especially since you mention 100 meters all around.... if I'm asking the question, it's because the Wi-Fi on ADSL routers or certain laptops don't have that range, as tested... the maximum with Wanadoo, for example, is 10 meters, all antennas wiped clean...;o)

"THE LIMITS OF WIFI
WiFi Speed

The speed offered by WiFi varies depending on the standard used by the equipment. In theory:

802.11b: 11 Mbps
802.11g: 54 Mbps
802.11n: over 300 Mbit/s

The speeds advertised by manufacturers are theoretical. In reality, this speed can be significantly reduced.
Number of computers connected to the WiFi network simultaneously

In theory, it is possible to connect up to 253 computers to a wireless access point simultaneously. However, to achieve a decent internet speed, the number of devices should remain below 15.
Maximum WiFi connection distance

Under the best conditions, connection distances can reach up to thirty meters.
Interference

Despite well-researched technology, the WiFi connection (2.4 GHz) can be disrupted by other devices using the same frequencies, such as mobile phones, Bluetooth, and especially microwaves.

Interference can lead to reduced speeds or even a loss of WiFi connection.

To remedy this, it is important to study the environment in which the networks will be installed. You may choose a different channel from the wireless access point. Conduct tests."

Yes, but you see, the LIVEBOX is in the office, about 15-20m from my room, and I don't want to put a router... it's to connect an iPad/iPod, so I would like to know the range of the new LIVEBOX from ORANGE.
Thank you.
