Question Extending Range of TP-Link Deco X60

[olds]

I have 3 Deco X60s in my house and the signal is great. I have a shed about 60' from the house and the signal there is weak. I have a wireless speaker (Sonos) there and sometimes I have enough signal to use it, sometimes not. What can I do to get a better signal there? Can I add an X60 in the shed? Will that "meet" the other signal halfway on give the shed better coverage?

Why not take one of your existing X60s out to the shed for a test run and see how it goes? If it works well then add another one or see if only 2 in the house is enough.

I only use 2 X60s in my 2 story 2600 sq ft home. I kept the 3rd one as a spare. I'm using the Ethernet backhaul between the though, not just mesh.

I didn't think of that. I'll give it a try. Thanks.

I've been running it like this for a couple of days, seems to be working. House is almost 2500 sq ft. It's slower than the rest of the home in my home theater room but still OK at 50 Mbps. If I have trouble streaming, which I doubt, I'll just add another Deco. Thanks again for the suggestion.
