Depending on range and line of sight you might consider an internal wireless access point, an external (weatherproof) unit, Powerline networking or ethernet cable.

Unfortunately that was inappropriate advice: while FTTP speed to the Hub will be much faster, it cannot improve wireless range or provide coverage to places not previously reached.
