Is your garage electrical supply direct off the house distribution board Ted  ?

If so, you can use powerline adapters to connect via mains cabling.

Plug one into mains and connect to broadband router with Ethernet cable, then it's pair in the garage to give the out socket to use there.

I've tried the Power line route but it only works on the house ring main. I have installed a hard wired Ethernet cable into my garage Annex to power my CCTV PoE security system & an old PC in there.

I havn't had a TV in many years and I don't miss it or the extortionate license fee! For free music I just love smoothradio.com , I access it from here: https://internetradiouk.com/

Actually Ted, that brings up a good idea - get a streaming device that has internet radio on it - I use Yamahas (no, not that type!) around the house (MusicCast using WiFi) but I'm sure there are many options
and providing you can get an internet signal then you have 1000'ds of stations to stream.....

Not  heard of MusicCast though I do like some of the Radio 4 Dramas!

Then you are almost there!

Freesat Signal now sorted bloke fitted new LNB plus he measured my Terestial TV Signal that turns out to be very good - just an issue with the frequency tuning.
