[Andy_con]

a have a bt home hub in the front room of my house, i have a seperate garage to the rear of the house. due to the garages location it doesnt pick up the signal.

what i was thinking is one of these -

and then having a wireless router in the garage to serve the garage and garden.

would this work? can you run two wireless routers off one internet connection?

Yes Andy that will work if the garage is on the same ring main as the house.

 

[Andy_con]

yes it is

 

[Leeshez]

That will be better than any wireless network.

don't buy cheap ones, the power consumption of some of these things is frightening.

Go for the Netgear ones

I don't know about this one exactly. But I've tried doing the same thing through the mains in my house and it was absolute sh*t.

Maybe mine was a cheapish one, cant remember as it was 2-3 years ago.
