help regarding router placement

[lolkek1993xddml]

hey there so i already have one internet provider which gives me wifi in my house but now i would also like to have internet in my garden office from a different provider. the issue is that im not sure how i will get a router in the office as i am pretty sure the internet cable i have only goes up to the side of the house. i thought of maybe adding a second router in my home and placing a wifi extender in my office connected to it. basically, if you have any good ideas please let me know thanks!

A different provider, may have to install new cable from their local point-of-presence. Does the garden office HAVE to be segregated from the house?
How far from the house is the garden office?

Well yeah the office has to be segregated because it is currently about 10 meters away from the house.

10 meters is trivial WiFi range.
Have you tried a laptop in the garden office, connected to the current router via WiFi?

Yeah I have tried but the current wifi doesn't reach that far.

You can't pick up the WiFi from 10 meters?
Something else is wrong.

Start with the laptop right next to the router. Walk out to garden office. Where does it drop off?
Or use a WiFi analyzer app on a phone or tablet.

If you are willing to DIY a WIFI antenna like the WokFi this will significantly boost your range. Helped a good buddy of mine get wifi from his home office / shed which was about 1/2 mile across a field from his house using an old DTV dish.
