What's the distance between the RBR and the garage area? 

An EAX series extender would be something to look into.

    Garage is about 30 feet away… I’m trying to connect WIZ lights outside garage - won’t connect due to weak WiFi message….but phone connects to my network from that area - no problem.

        Do these WIZ lights connect directly to the home WiFi network, or is there "WIZmote" involved?
