NETGEAR EX3110-100NAS WiFi RANGE EXTENDER
I just purchased the Netgear EX3110 Dual Band WiFi Extender. I have a security system on my residence and am needing help to get WiFi to two (2) cameras that are outside on/in a garage not connected...

150-200ft is to much to expect from wifi. Especially when exterior walls get involved.
Options to connect the garage?
1. powerline. If the garage is on the same circuit, it *might* connect/reach that far. It'd be pushing it to
2. bury a underground rated ethernet wire. You can run up to 300ft with ethernet. That'd reach and be the best option. Might take some digging on your part
3. a point to point system like netgear airbridge (cheaper versions are avaiable) would let you connect the 2 buildings and then you'd just setup an access point in the garage.
