Rod,

I'd REALLY like to know how it works for you. My shop is 150' from the house and I tried the range extender and it didn't work. Never thought of having the extender located in the shop as previously posted.

When I talked with the BB geeks they advised to locate in the house - returned the extender

I'd like to know if it worked, same deal house about 100 ft. from the house, metal siding, no windows.

Here's another option to consider - CCrane makes a few different WiFi range-extender products and this looks like it would be perfect for a detached garage/shop, especially if you want to be able to stream Warren Evans' www.dragracer.tv programs.

I've got the FiOS WiFi router and although it works better than just the old extender, it still leaves "dead spots" in the yard.
