The range of the wireless signal is related to the transmit rate of the
wireless communication. Communications at lower transmit range might
travel larger distances.
Bluetooth wireless technology
Some computers in this series have Bluetooth wireless communication
function which eliminates the need for cables between electronic devices
such as computers, printers, and mobile phones. When it is enabled,
Bluetooth provides the wireless personal area network environment which

The range of your wireless devices can be affected when the
antennas are placed near metal surfaces and solid high-density
materials.
Range is also impacted due to "obstacles" in the signal path of the
radio that might either absorb or reflect the radio signal.
Authentication prevents access to critical data and makes it impossible
to falsify the origin of a message.
Encryption prevents eavesdropping and maintains link privacy.
