@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).

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.
