Cables don't play well or easily with iPads. Then there is the put a R45 connection in /through the TT thing. Add in across my driveway and yard. Impractical for me. Wifi is my only reasonable choice.

Looking for a simple plug & play fix.
I have been using the Amped Wireless Repeater ($39.99 Amazon Prime) in about the same type of situation as you are inquiring about for over 7 years now and have had virtually no issues. It is not exactly plug and play but is about as simple as you can get as you do not need any networking knowledge as the built-in set-up wizard does it for you. This model is only 2.4ghz but I do use the dual band version that I take in our motorcoach to pull in park WIFI. There are other ways to do this too as already been mentioned (The Ubiquiti products as an example are excellent but do require some networking skill but would have extended range capabilities). I am repeating my house WIFI to my shop building over 300 feet away with the Amped Wireless unit which should meet your requirements without difficulties. I do have a brief description of how I use the Amped Wireless repeater and how I do WIFI with an external antenna on our motorcoach at my blog listed in my signature line if you want to poke around a bit. From a performance standpoint, there are better ways to do what you are wanting perhaps, but not much simpler and inexpensive in my opinion.
