We will be in touch
And if they do, can you recommend a nice, cheap, secure one that has a good range?

How do you know if it's capable Stoner? Would something like this fire my signal out to the back garden then?
another tack to take is a range extender.
Ive tried two, the first was shite, this has been pretty good:

If your router has an external aerial that can be unscrewed then something like that hi-gain aerial can add some range.
to really get some penetration the repeater is a good idea (just needs power connection).
If you want to rig up an outside office, then you can try either:
cat 5 cabling
"homeplug" network system if within range
wifi external repeater that sends a focussed signal between two points.
... or add an additional access point if you can get some Cat 5 into the area where you need access. You can pick up some models on Amazon for less than £20
This one has power over ethernet, which is quite handy:
