Internet in garden room

[AuburnWarrior]

I have just had a garden room built and I have had an Ethernet cable installed.  The Ethernet cable is connected to the back of the SKY router in the house,  If I put the Ethernet cable into the SKY puck in the garden room, will the puck act as a WiFi booster or should I buy another router and link the puck via WiFi?

@AuburnWarrior no the Stream pucks do not act as wifi hot spots unlike the Sky Q minis. I would buy a cheap weifibaccess point.

@AuburnWarrior 

but not a router: that's almost always inappropriate hardware.

Thanks very much for the replies.

 What access point would you recommend? I've had a quick look but it seems quite confusing...😔

@AuburnWarrior 

Personally I use cheap TP-Link 802.11n models because I have no need for high speed wireless.

Thanks very much for your help...😎

Personally I'd buy at least AC at this point. A 802.11n AP is a bit of a waste of money now

Personally I'd recommend using a router that can be put in AP mode.

I have a TP-Link AX20 that I've used in AP mode.

It has WiFi 6 and four ethernet ports in addtion to the fifth that you use for the uplink.

Probably cheaper than the equivalent wireless access point.
