I'm curious how far away you can get from your router and still have your kindle fire work? My fire will work outside my house in my driveway, but if I move closer to my yard the signal gets very weak sometimes dropping out whereas with my lap top I can easily connect with full strength in my yard with zero dropouts. I do a lot of reading outside in the Summer. When I first got the fire it connected in my yard with no issue, now it's not connecting as well.

I'm curious what experiences fire users are having with their router and signal strength. For those of you that can connect easily with a strong signal outside your house what brand and model router are you using?
