Hi. I'm trying to extend my WiFi coverage to my garage, approx. 30m at the bottom of my garden. I've purchased a Sky Q Wireless booster 2020 edition and after a bit of experimentation, I've got it where I have a degree of coverage.
However, I'm trying to install a cctv camera at the garage, and there is nowhere that the camera can be placed where it receives adequate signal.
I installed a cat6 cable along side the power cables. Is there a different box that I could get, which would essentially act as a secondary WiFi router if I plug the other end in to my existing router?
I tried to search for this initially but couldn't find anything.
Thanks.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@David380 if your Sky booster has an ethernet port you can use that but not all Sky boosters dont. What you need is a cheap WiFi Access Point Like this one rather than a router as such simply plug the Ethernet lead in to the unit
