I had sky here in the UK and wifi for five+ yrs with no problems. The
sky box and router where approx 10ft away from each other with a brick
wall between though laptop and mobiles registered a strong signal in the
room where the sky was installed.

Signal level halves every time you double the distance so, taking your
10ft example, the
Sky box would see double the power if the separation was 5' and four times
the power at
2' 6".

RF normally follows the inverse square law so doubling the distance reduces
the signal level to a quarter.
