WiFi extension into garden

can you advise how I can get a WiFi extender to allow my WiFi coverage to work in the garden

@MarkV1973 a lot depends on the size of the garden and the location of the hub but having a wifi source near a window overlooking hhe garden usually works. If you have a covered area with mains power then using a powerline adapter kit with a built-in wifi access point could work but these units are not weather proof. You can buy dedicated external wifi access points but these are not cheap.

Note that the various 'WiFi Guarantees' offered by Sky are specifically for indoors only.

Sky loans wireless booster hardware 'free' under the terms of the 'WiFi Guarantee' element of the legacy 'Broadband Boost' add-on and the 'Enhanced Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' part of the 'WiFi Max' subscription supplement: they don't otherwise provide or sell boosters except to resolve issues with Sky Q. Phoning Sky to go through a telephone diagnosis is required to have a booster or pod allocated to the account. Inevitably some  Sky booster hardware has leaked onto a certain auction site and elsewhere online but Sky won't offer support with using these, and Max pods acquired that way won't work at all. 

Confusingly the default 'Wall to Wall WiFi Guarantee' bundled with all new Sky Broadband orders where Boost or Max is not added by the customer doesn't actually provide booster hardware, and is essentially a sales lead generator for the supplements mentioned above plus a one month broadband subscription refund.
