Wrong forum. Try the Directv forum. This “wireless” forum is for cellular service.

I know the WVB does not use your internet/wifi. You could go the other way, use a RF remote in the workshop & get a long HDMI cable to move the mini closer to the wvb.

I'm guessing at this point (below)

If you can see the directv wifi network with a PC, you might be able to do a seperate repeater for that, but I suspect it'll have a passwd that no one knows...
