Re: WIFI in external building
@Simon287 You won't get any help from Sky to improve it, they specifically exclude outbuildings from their coverage guarantees.
You will have to look at either running a long ethernet cable to a wireless access point or wireless booster(depending on the distance boosters may be worthless).

Re: WIFI in external building
That's outside the remit of the various Sky WiFi 'guarantees', and I doubt any other ISP would help in similar circumstances. It's something you'll need to resolve either by yourself or through commissioning a network professional.
Potential solutions are ethernet cable, Powerline networking or point-to-point wireless bridging.
