Andrew,

The power line Ethernet extenders typically do not pass through surge protectors or RCD devices. Seeing you said the shed was on a different circuit (I'd be guessing a mixed circuit with its own RCD), a power line Ethernet extender will either not work, or work extremely poorly. I'd check to see exactly where you can get signal and go for the wifi extender/access point client with an external antenna that you can place in a location where you can get signal.
