Due to structure and topology, I have a problem getting a WiFi signal throughout the house. I also have a TV in the den that requires a LAN drop.
I've tried a network extender but really had problems configuring it. Once configured, I go mixed results.
Someone told be about a device that uses your home electrical line as the cabling. This so called "Powerline" technology allows you to connect a device into your electric socket. Run a Ethernet cable from your router to the device. You plug a second device where you want a LAN drop or wireless, pair the two devices, and now you have connectivity where you want it.
I thought it would be great for those of you who want connectivity in your shop (providing you are running to the same electric box).
Here is a review of the device:

It took me 10 minutes to setup.
I got mine through Amazon.
