    If the outbuilding is small and relatively close to the house, Netgear makes an "outdoor" Orbi satellite.  If the distance is large, then a different approach is needed.  So, what kind of outbuilding?  How far from the house?  How close is an Orbi inside the house to the wall closest to the outbuilding?

    What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
