ORBI
My cable company has recommended Orbi as a WiFi extender. I have 2 buildings separated by maybe 50’ and both have metal roofs. I cannot get the internet in my garage building without having a second internet package. With these obstacles will the Orbi give me internet in my garage?

I would recommend running a burried Ethernet cable from one building to the other building then put in a LAN conected AP. You could set up a Orbi system, Orbi router in the 1st building then use the ethernet line to the 2nd building where you can connect the Satellite. Having metallic materials will impede wifi signals.
