I'll probably end up running CAT line out there, because I don't think I'm going ot have much
success with the WiFi out to the garage. I have not walked around the property to determine
where I get signal, but I get strong signal out on the patio outside my bedroom (bedroom is 2nd
floor - pario is ground level) , but if I move to the other side of the yard - between the
house and the detatched garage, signal goes away. The Wifi router is right on an outside wall
- litterally, so there is some reason it dropps off in that direction.
