Well, that's a question that perhaps has no good answer... :-)

We see people here who are sensitive to wi-fi signals even
when they are over 100 feet away.

However, that's not nearly as bad as using a wi-fi laptop,
where the transmitter is only a few inches away from your
hands.

So I guess I'd have to say, the further away, the better.

When I'm on travel and have to use wi-fi myself for
internet access, I use a USB extension cable for the
wi-fi (or 3G) transmitter/receiver.  At the airports, I
typically put the transmitter/receiver 5 feet away from
me.  At the hotel, I typically put it 15 feet away from me.
