If you're looking to put smart devices (or any other WiFi based device) in an outbuilding, you'll almost certainly need internet access.
I've recently needed to do the same for my Ring Indoor Cam (which I put in my garage), which got me thinking of the various ways you can get internet in an outbuilding which only has power.
The 7 approaches I came up with are:
0:00 Intro
0:26 WiFi extenders/repeaters
2:23 WiFi mesh
3:57 Point to point
5:03 4G or 5G hub
6:10 Satellite internet
7:43 Run Ethernet cable
9:09 Use powerline adapters.

@Phil Hode It's hard to say for sure, but shielded CAT cable would generally be better. Whether that's shielded CAT6/CAT6a or CAT7 (which already has extra shielding) is up to you - both should work well 🙂

Very informative video, thanks. For me it would be easiest to split my incoming Broadband and run a coax from the splitter to my outbuilding, is that an option (I suspect not) and if so what device would I need in the outbuilding to connect my coax into? Thanks.
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 2 года назад
Thanks , glad it was helpful 🙂 Using coax for internet could actually work well - I've heard about working fine, but I don't know any specifics (max speeds, signal degredation etc) unfortunately. In terms of an adapter, I think you can get coax to Ethernet adapters which seems like what you would need: www.amazon.com/coaxial-ethernet-adapter/s?k=coaxial+to+ethernet+adapter Then you can just use Ethernet to a WiFi access point in the outbuilding.

Hey really helpful video man. I have a question and it may be a dumb one but; if my home has a modem can I purchase a router and run it to an external building and get a WiFi signal in there?
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 2 года назад
Thanks man 🙂 Yes there's various options for getting a WiFi signal in an outbuilding. It depends on exactly what modem you have, but if you're able to run an Ethernet cable from the modem to an outbuilding, that would be the 'best' option - you would plug the Ethernet cable into the modem, then get a WiFI router in your external building and plug the Ethernet cable into that. Of course, this is 'best' - but might be too time consuming (or expensive) to actually run the Ethernet cable all that way. An alternative would be to purchase a few "whole home WiFi" discs, and plug the first into your modem. Then put another between the first disc and your external building, and another disc in your external building. Then the discs work together to provider WiFI throughout your home, and your external building too.

To be honest, I'm not too sure sorry. I have heard of people using coax for internet data (i.e. Ethernet over Coax), but I can't say with any confidence that what you're proposing will work. I hope it does though (please let me know if so, I'm interested!), and maybe someone else can comment if they know more.

So if I'm barely getting signal from my neighbor, (can't really watch RU-vid) could I use a wifi extender to be able to get better signal AND upload and download speeds?
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 2 года назад
A WiFi extender would certainly help with getting a better signal. And if it was a very weak signal before, the extender would then help improve upload and download speeds too (but naturally they'll still be capped at the ISP rates you ordered with your package).

Re: outbuildings and shared consumer units. I've experienced difficulties here, before my rewire in 2018 on 50 plus year old wiring the circuit was definitely shared and some Moss security lights which sent a signal to an audible chime on a unit inside when the PIR was triggered worked perfectly. As soon as my new wiring was installed with the outbuildings now fed from the house consumer unit by armour plated cable the apparatus stopped working; further testing revealed that if I used it in the house it worked and if I used it in the outbuilding it worked but nothing if one element was in the house and the other outside, I've found this to be the case with range extenders as well. In very simplistic terms it's as if there's a resistance issue due to the distance (10-70m depending on outbuilding) or the step up from internal cable to external armour plated.
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 2 года назад
That's really useful to know, thanks for the info. In my case, powerline adapters have been fine across different circuits (but the same consumer unit)... but they definitely aren't fool proof, I agree.

Hi so I've ran my cat 6 cable to my outbuilding, it has no end connectors, do I need 2x RJ45 adapters and any type of router for WiFi?
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 3 года назад
Yes, it sounds like you'll need RJ45 adapters/connectors and a crimping tool. There's various videos on RU-vid showing how to crimp a CAT cable. It's a bit fidly at first, but it's not too hard. And then for the router, any should work but because you're essentially creating a WiFi access point, some routers (especially old ones from ISPs) might need extra configuration. I cover what I did to turn my BT HomeHub 6 into a WiFi access point in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IDXneJVh91w.html

Hello, I was wondering, can I run the cable into my garden building, into a face plate & then run a smaller flexible cable from the face plate into a router and get WiFi that way? Is it better to run the cable direct into the router?
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 2 года назад
Hello, running it into a faceplate - and then running a new CAT cable from the faceplate to the router is totally fine, and is a more standard approach. You will need to wire up the faceplate which is naturally an extra step, but this approach will be better overall IMO.

If my barn has separate electrical can I still use the power line adaptor method ?
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 3 года назад
It will work if the barn's electrics meet at the same consumer unit/breaker panel/distribution unit (different phrases for the same thing, depending where you are in the World). My downstairs and garage are on different electrical circuits but work fine, as they both still meet in my consumer unit. However if the electric supply to your barn is from a completely different source, it probably wouldn't work.
@Denboy10
@Denboy10 3 года назад
I tried using the extenders and power line before but I keep getting dropped signal or no signal at all. Would the mesh be better?
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 3 года назад
Hmm that's odd. Sometimes the house's electrics can cause issues with power line adapters, especially if it's older wiring. Or it may have been a faulty device. WiFi extenders should work okay to be honest - and mesh is almost an extension of this (i.e. a bit of a better version of it). So it could be worth trying to understand what caused your extenders not to work - was it mainly that you had a weak signal? If so, perhaps your walls are thick in which case only a quality mesh system (and lots of mesh points) will work. It's hard to know for sure though, since every house is different and may have different WiFi disturbances based on nearby factors and neighbours etc.

@SmartHomePoint

Whilst I just have non-WiFi power line adapters, I do know of people with wireless ones that really like them, e.g. this TP-Link one: www.amazon.com/TP-Link-AV600-Powerline-WiFi-Extender/dp/B00HSQAIQU/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=powerline+adapter+with+wifi&qid=1610267006&sprefix=powerline+adapter&sr=8-3 The main thing to know is that they still require being plugged into the wall sockets on each end, and also one end needs an Ethernet connection to the router (or a network switch). But then the other end will offer up a new WiFi network, making it more practical to work with on the other end. Happy to answer any more questions you have on this approach though :)

Hi just watch this video if I plug into a hub and run a cable out to the building do I get another hub or plug it straight into the PC computer ?
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint Год назад
Hi, it's pretty much your choice at the other end (i.e. where the Ethernet cable finishes). Plugging it straight into your PC computer will work fine. However if you (in time) find that you want more Ethernet cables in that are, you could then buy a network switch - and this would then allow you to plug into multiple devices (including your PC). But for simplicity, yes you can plug straight into your PC there 🙂

@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint Год назад
Yes that would work fine, however not every router will work. The router is effectively working as an access point and some ISP routers disallow this. Having said that, I reused a BT HomeHub 2 in the UK and that worked okay. It will probably create a brand new WiFi network, since it's basically a second WiFi router that you have setup.

Nope you're correct that it doesn't really matter. Cat5e and Cat6 will work the same way here (max 1000 Mbps speed) but as you say, both would be limited by network speeds if your ISP offer less than 100 mb/s.

Hi, very helpful, I have a Ethernet cable that comes to my garage, it connected to a Sky Q box, and that gave me wifi in the garage, but I changed my provider to EE from Sky and the Q boxes now does not give me wifi, is there something that I can plug the Ethernet cable into before plugging it in the Q box that would give me wifi there?
@SmartHomePoint
@SmartHomePoint 3 года назад
Hi, thanks! So do you have an actual Ethernet cable running throughout your house and into your garage? If so, you should be able to plug this into your EE router in your home (using an Ethernet extension cable if needed), and then use a WiFi router as an access point in your garage. But if it's the case that the Sky Q box provides the Ethernet cables, that's also fine - this is your Sky Q boxes acting as powerline adapters. In this case, adding a WiFi router in your garage (again acting as an access point) will work well. The WiFi access point/router approach can be a bit of a pain to setup at first, but I show most of it in another video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IDXneJVh91w.html Hope this helps!

I have Sonos wifi speakers and a Sky Minibox in my mancave at the bottom of my garden. I used TP-Link power line adapters and everything worked at the beginning. Then my Sky Q main box started experiencing internet connection problems. This would filter back to the mancave and things stopped working properly. The connection would constantly drop out and then reconnect itself. I changed all my Ethernet cables, got a new Sky Q box from Sky and even changed my ISP. All to no avail. Eventually i unplugged the TP-Link PA and the internet connection reconnected and stayed up. Powerline adapters are a great idea but they're not for everyone. If you try them out and the internet connection drops out, remember this post. And keep your receipt as you'll be able to get your money back.
