Hi. Most walls, yes. The signal gets reduced a bit but should be OK.

Yes, it can. Depending on the materials the wall is made of, the range of the signal might be reduced due to degradation by passing through the wall, but a well-placed wireless router should still be able to reach everywhere inside a typical home.

Yes wireless signals can go through almost anything, within reason. In some cases, an indoor or outdoor antenna may be necessary to receive an adequate signal. As with TV or radio broadcasts, some areas may not have any coverage at all.

Yes, they can get through walls.
I have a wireless system in my house which reaches from the first floor to the third, keeping a strong signal. I'd say most wireless systems are the same or similar so you shouldn't worry about losing connection. Hope I helped :)

Yes. Depending on how thick the wall is the signal could be strong, weak or not work at all. I would suggest a D-Link Extreme N.

Yes, although it will make the signal a bit weaker.

Yeah, it can go through, but not through many walls, as they decrease the signal strength

yes,depending on signal strengh and frequency,which determines the distance the signal can travel....infrared is only line of sight!

it really depends what sort of signal it is if it for wi-fi then yes easily, however if it something like bluetooth then yes but is really reduced.
