Extend coverage across your property or farm
From sheds to entire farms, Lightwire delivers solutions designed to extend or ensure your home can get connected.
Shed Connect
Shed Connect extends your Lightwire internet from your home to another building on the same property.
One plan, one bill, multiple buildings online.
- Reliable extension of your home internet service to a second building
- Free install by our experienced team
- Only $39 per month on top of your bill on our unlimited 24-month plan.
WAN extension
A WAN (Wide Area Network) Extension lets us get you connected even if your house doesn’t have a clear line of sight to a Lightwire tower.
We bounce the signal through a nearby property that does.

No. Shed Connect is for buildings on the same property — like sheds, workshops, or garages.
Yes. The relay property owner must agree to host the equipment.
1. A site assessment + line-of-sight check to a Lightwire tower, so we know the dish will work well.
2. Install the dish and run the cable from the dish to the preferred router location inside your building, routing conduit and hardware while walls etc are open. Then, after your build is done, we do final setup & connection.
