Hi

We have a small duplex apartment and when the bell is rung on the lowest level it cannot be heard on the terrace on the upper floor.

I am looking to buy a wireless door bell which can work in a 30 foot range and over multiple floors (not in straight line-of-sight manner).

Any suggestions on where can I buy this?

I have wifi all over the house- so in case any techie innovator out there might like to experiment with building a new device, I would be happy to sponsor such an experiment.

If there is something available off-the-shelf, I would be happy to buy it too. Basically, I'm keen to solve this problem in the easiest and most innovative way possible :-)

Cheers!

Innovation lies in the "simplicity" of the innovation. Good thought on the wireless door bell, i must appreciate. But why do you want such a simple mechanism to be presented in such a complex way. I'd suggest you to fix another bell on the upper floor of your duplex house and attach it parallely to your existing door bell line. As simple as that. so now when anybody rings, both the door bells will ring simultaneously. Keep the guests coming in :)
