The Gateway will be near a window, which is not too far from the router. William's experience is encouraging. If it doesn't work, we will run a CAT 5.

Can you measure wifi signal strength ahead of time with a smartphone? Is it possible to hardwire Cat5 from the homeowner's router/extender/etc to the WAN port of the IQ Gateway? That is always preferable to wifi.
