How to improve Homekit range from an Apple TV ?

My Apple TV is quite far from the Door & Window Sensor I installed : is there a way to make it work without buying another Apple TV and without using an iPad as a supplementary hub ?

You might want to think about another wifi access point. If it supports it you could possibly use it as a wifi repeater but depending on how much traffic the ancillary devices create this might be problematic as repeaters will reduce network (although I can't see it as much of an issue for a window sensor, myself) The other option would be to extend the network using plugged into the additional access point which you then use as a remote access point with it's connection details.


EDIT, agh, forget that if it's BT.
