Hello everyone, I need help and advice.
I use Internet plans details This includes:
750 Mbps download, 750 Mbps upload
Add-ons: Unlimited data.
With modern: T3200M.
▪︎I want to know why there is no signal at my garage separate from the house. and not can use wifi ( displayed as 1 tick)
• Please tell me what do I need to do to be able to use the internet at the garage? When Wifi shows 1 line, the signal is very bad. I want to install the camera outside the garage, but the Wifi signal is not there, what should I do? or do i have to contact Telus installer to fix it!?
In the meantime I've been using Telus Wifi boost for use in the garage but sadly once installed it shows "Poor connection" ( I want the camera to work fine and not have problems connecting to the internet

Please advise to me, Thanks in advance.

Wifi is susceptible to all sorts of issues. Telus has some information on this:

 

Understanding and optimizing your Wi-Fi | TELUS Support

 

I have one dead spot (even with boost) that I was able to rectify using powerline networking.

 

If you have no luck after trying various options in the Telus article you may wish to consider something like this:

 

TP-Link AV600 Powerline WiFi Extender, ADVANCED 300Mbps Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender, Repeater, Wi...


Just a long time customer hoping to help.

What kind of distance is the garage away from the modem and booster? In a perfect world running a hard wire connection is the ideal way. You can add a booster closer to the garage inside your home.
