A hopefully simple network question

[SteveScooby]

I currently have Sky broadband which works well through the house. However, i’ve got a mancave at the bottom of the garden, which is out of range.

I’ve run an ethernet cable from my router to the sky puck that’s in there, but the puck doesn’t act as an access point like the old sky minibox used to.

What do I need to plug in to the end of the cable to give me signal in the cave that’s all on the same system. I need it all to be the same SSID(?) as in the house , ie SKYAB123 if that makes sense. I had a range extender that had its own network name when I plugged it in, and that conflicted all the alexa systems in the house (i think)

As you can tell i’m not really sure what i’m doing 🤣

An old router if you have one, just turn off the DHCP server, and setup the wifi.

You need an WiFi Access Point, then copy the router's SSID so your devices roam.

What do you mean by sky puck? One of the sky stream boxes?
