Yes, I'm sure your garage is further than 30 feet away from your router? Right?He was having dropouts at 30 feet. And I've got about 8 RPie 3s and some are located over 50 feet away with walls between and never had dropouts. I never have used an antenna with my Rpies. Including my Rpi3 in the Garage. So, that is what makes me suspect his WiFi Network is weak. I monitor mine with PiCorePlayer and I like to see a 'quality rating' over 50.
Rpi Model 3 only connects to 2.4G which has a longer range than 5G -- He said he had a 'Dongle' (If he's using it to connect to 5G - that could be a problem)
