Sky Wifi Max in Garden Office

Has anyone managed to get Sky Wifi max into a garden office or similar. I know that Sky say they can only guarentee in a house or garage that is attached to a house, but in the real world this doesn't help a huge number of people as since covid there have been a lot of garden offices created. To the best of my knowledge I cannot just buy a Pod to help at my own risk as Sky won't sell them, so what is the solution from sky to support this?

@Nick+Kjelgaard by far the best solution is to run an Ethernet cable to the unit and use a third part wifi access point.Failing that you can buy a Powerline Networking kit thst uses the mains cabling to carry the data and can come with a built-in WiFi access point.

 

Using a WiFi extender like a Sky Max pod is often nit suitable as the extender neds to have a strong WiFi connection to the hub so has to be inside your home which is then unlikely to give a strong enough signal inside the garden office after passing through 2 external walls.
