Sky in pub shed

We have a pub shed in our garden.  We have used Eero mesh boosters to get WiFi there but we want to be able to use a sky Q mini down there all the time.  Is there any way to do this without running an Ethernet cable from the skyQ box all the way down to the shed as that would be a real pain for just occasional use. Thanks!

@BecciT  If the shed electrics are on the same circuit as the house then powerline adapters would be a good option.

@BecciT  No you connect one to the router and the Q mini connects to the other one.  If you do a search for powerline adapters there are some good articles about how they work.

Hi @BecciT   It all depends on your ISP. If it is Sky then from router or box. If not from Main box to Mini.
