Trying to get a wifi signal up into the greenhouse, house walls are
blocking the signal from the router, have tried using those plug in
things that you can pair up but the greenhouse has a different fuse to
the indoors and it didnt work (also I want to use a tablet rather than
plug in my laptop) any suggestions?
NB we dont have a mobile phone signal worth the name on any network or I
could use that as the tablet has a sim card


Can you run a cable from the house to the greenhouse?
Wired is usually the best way if you can.

Alternatively have a socket added to the circuit which goes to the
greenhouse near to the fuse board so you can get two sockets on the same
circuit.

Cross posted to uk.d-i-y because this is in their territory.

The usual issue is that you can see the router, but the router is too deaf
to get the signal from the remote computer, since its not going to be as
strong and with all the interference these days you are lucky to get it to
work on the patio!

Or even a wifi access point on the outside of the house wall.
