Firstly, since they use Bluetooth pairing, the remote is tied to just one box, so you need to be careful about which one you keep in each room. The old TIVO remotes do work though, so if you are upgrading, ask if you can keep them (doesn't seem to be a problem).

Secondly, as a test, I tried to control the box in the living room from the kitchen - this is about 6 meters away and through two internal brick walls - it did work, though obviously it would depend on exactly what was in the walls! I think Bluetooth range is typically 10m, so at 8m you'd be close to the limit.
