Strength of the signal from a wifi modem/router diminishes inversely to the distance from the router (same as light intensity). Otherwise you could pick up the signal anywhere is a straight line at any distance. The receiver relies on strength of signal as a function of speed of interpretation. That's why boosters exist.

I've been keeping track on a spreadsheet for years and use a variety of sites.

Yeah but I can't get ATT fiber where I live. I think either ATT fiber or Google fiber is good.
