Discussion topic: We have a new garden room which is quite a distance from the house, perhaps 50m.

We want to install sky in our garden room. We have a sky q box and 2 mini q boxes in the house. We have tried 1 of the mini boxes in the garden room but it is unreliable due to the distance I think. Is there any way of getting a booster that would help?

'Boosters' are mid-point (relay) devices: they are very unlikely to help over that kind of distance.

You'll need to look at ethernet cable, Powerline networking or point-to-point wireless solutions.
