#35035 Hello all!

i'm working on a project between 2 houses, and i read about transmit range on the web,and all the knowledge i get is that the ESP transmit to 250-500m and he transmit in a20dBm. but when i'm testing it i'm barely get 50m maybe 80m between them until i'm not geting data in a reliable way. what i can do? i'm working in urban place so that what i need to expect between them?

in the video on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BYdZ_24yg0 they get 366m in open air between router and esp01...

i think it Because the router (pout and sensitivity are better then the esp...) am i right?

if i'm right anyone know if i can change the Pout of the esp whis-out other components? :?:

i will be glad if you will add all your knowledge on this and url's... :D :D
