Then get your friends router, theres quite a few of them that reach a good distance and don't cost too much.

I think the range is the same as the controller (30 ft.) but I'm not quite sure.

There alright, before I got a 70 foot Ethernet cable I had one it was about 50 ft away from my router and had to go through 2 walls too. It still had a decent connection though I rarely had it drop even when I played Gears. Still I would recommend getting a cord its way better.

It should say on the box of the adapters how far they reach. If your are playing in your house not out side, there shouldn't be any problems what so ever for you to not get it to work. I'm using a damn 50 dollar game adapter one I got from Wal-mart for 3 years now and I had no problems with it.
