I have a modem in the house which works fine when in the house. I have a garage about 50ish feet away where I have a glassblowing studio. The internet signal is super weak needless to say.

What's the best one or two options for getting a strong enough signal through the yard into the garage for broadcasting streaming video?

I don't know much about this field of tech.

Thanks in advance!

After this you get point to point wifi solutions which are not always optimal for video streaming. You would put a outdoor bridge units on both buildings. At that short distance pretty much any model will work. ubiquiti is a popular...

At that short distance pretty much any model will work. ubiquiti is a popular brand something like a pair of their nanostations. It should be ok but it is still wifi so it is always subject to random interference.
