    Hi All,

    Firstly, apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere. I have read some of the threads, but can't find a specific answer.

    We have VF GB broadband in the house and all works well on the ground floor and first story.
    However, we have our attic converted and recently moved one of the kids up there. However, she has no wifi in the attic.

    Also, we have no wifi at the back of the garden (and it's not a big one).

    The router is at the front of the house and unfortunately, there is no scope to move this.

    Any recommendations and/or options to get WiFi signal in the Attic and Shed in the back garden. Note, there is power to the shed.

    All help appreciated. The shed is my temporary man cave during the current situation.

    Thanks in advance.

    A few options

    - Ethernet cable from front room to attic and shed and put in access points attached to that (probably difficult to do)

    - Powerline units X 3, 1 at router and 1 each in attic and shed (depending on your wiring may work quite well or barely at all). The 2 in the attic and shed can either be combo units with Wifi access point built in or use 3 basic units and attach 2 access points where you need the wifi

    - Mesh WiFi with 2/3 units. One at router and one in a first floor room at the back of the house might work if garden is small, if not add more.
