A few feet would prob be minimum...my has been sitting 6 ft or so from my router without issues for 2 yrs.

 

Lagging could be due to the total thru-put of your system... do you know your data rate ;  http://www.speedtest.net/

On the other hand, my base has always been mere inches from my router with no obvious issues.
