Wifi extension.

Trying to get my wifi to reach my shed, approx 30ft from the house and approx 60ft from the router. Ive got a pod plugged into the router with an ethernet cable and a pod in the shed, wifi does reach but its a bit unreliable. Any ideas???

    Pods are designed to be placed mid way between the source and target. Impractical for you as it would be in the middle of the garden!  Best thing is an Ethernet cable from the pod in the shed back to the VM hub.

    The Pod in the shed will only get the same weak signal as the other devices there. It's designed to extend the signal, it can't amplify it.

    You could try standing it in a house window facing the shed, but the only reliable way to get a good signal is to run an ethernet cable there.
