How does wifi know where to stop working?

939 views

Whenever a new wifi router/network is set up in a place I’ve lived, the wifi only works within the immediate confines of the house or apartment. Wifi works through some walls, but how do localized wifi networks (for businesses and stuff too) know where exactly to stop connecting?

It has a lot to do with the construction of the building blocking a signal. There isn’t a specified apartment/office range involved. I’m actually on the outside of my apartment building right now typing this using my wifi.
