With two walls and rooms in the way?

I get a solid 90Mbit+ on my Note 3 via 5Ghz when I'm upstairs (Router is downstairs). Wireless-N.

So you have a floor in the way? Not quite the same as two walls, the latter involving the signal going through 20 times thicker material.

If you have a smartphone download the the app "Wifi Analyzer", I use this on my android phone and it tells me what channels are being used by my neighbours, it also will tell the the best one to use.

Another option is to buy a separate Router, I own the Asus RT-N66U which I have been able to hit 124Mb on my 120Mb connection.

I'm not trying to claim that it is, just offering similarly anecodtal advice for those interested in what kind of performance they can expect.

Mind you, the router sits beside a fireplace and the room upstairs is on the other side of said fireplace, so it's not quite just a floor, either.

Well that's slightly more of a challenge. But regardless Wifi is known to degrade rapidly over distance if walls are in the way, though everyone's mileage will vary depending on local conditions. One wall or floor is easy, even a router missing its antennae can deliver through that. However I find that two walls (and a requisite room in between) is pretty much the limit of reasonable usability in most deployments. Once you get to three typical walls and two rooms you're looking at slow/intermittent signal at best. But again that all varies according to equipment and local conditions. Annoyingly I find my mobile phone maintains the same performance at twice the distance compared to my flatmate's phones and laptops.

Yeah, it's entirely variable and depends on so many factors that it's impossible to say. Everyone has different walls, different floors, different equipment, different levels of interference.
