I live in a mobile home - metal sides, probably steel. Next to it is a small wood frame building I use as a combination shop and office.
I am thinking of getting a tablet computer to use in the mobile, more for amusement than office-type tasks. The wi-fi router will be with the DSL modem, in the office. Will this work? Will the wi-fi signal go through the mobile home walls?
I Googled but couldn't find a flat yes/no answer. I already have a router but nothing I can use to test its penetration into the mobile home. I'd hate to buy a tablet and find it didn't work.
I could move the modem and router into the mobile and run cables from the modem to the computers in the office but that is by far not my first choice. May not work as cables will have to be 75 feet long or so and I'd have to install conduit. No room for the office desktop computers, printers, monitors, etc. in the mobile. Rather than that solution I'd prefer to just forget about getting the tablet.
Suggestions? Experience?
TIA
