Extending WiFi to detached garage - eviltoast

Hello I’m looking to extend my wifi range from my home to my detached garage so I can stream movies/sports in there. Any advice on what to use?

    Pulling a cable from your current network location would obviously be ideal, but not necessarily a requirement if all you need is streaming movies/sports.

    How far away is it, and what do you already use for wifi? If you don’t have crazy bandwidth needs, any mediocre wireless mesh should be able to get you streaming.

    If you can afford it (~$350+), one with a dedicated backhaul band would be ideal for easy, reliable connectivity.

      It’s 14 feet away from my home and the price isn’t really a concern if anything I would just save up for something
