R8000P and AC2200 Extender

I have an R8000P Nighthawk set up in the center of the house on the 2nd floor. It cannot be moved. I added an AC2200 Extender and located itin my garage. It works fine. The garage is on the left of the house. I have a large work shed on the right side of the house and cannot get a decent signal in their. Its strong enough to know i have a camera set up but not strong enough to hold the signal. Can I purchase another AC2200 for the shed and if so will it be difficult to install ? 

 

Recommendation to install if it will work ? 

 

Thank you, 

Peter

Hey there Eagledad, 

 

You certainly can using another extender for your shed. Please check out the post linked below as one of our Superusers provides valuable info on using 2 extenders.
