Cover your M5 and put another unit outside.

What is the current network topology? How far away between the patio and penthouse? Is there any obstruction existed?
We need more details so that we can give you a specific answer.
Good day.

Between the last M5 (using 6 in my penthouse) and the patio is only a 5 cm glass wall but the house is very well isolated (cage of farady). In the first 2 meters of the patio it’s ok. Therefore my plan was to mount an outdoor unit within the first 0.5m of the glass wall to pickup the signal of the unit of the other side of the glass wall. 230 volt is available at that position. Using cat5/6 cable to feed the outdoor unit is not an option unless I drill a hole in the glass wall (which basically means I need to install a new glass wall (8x3 meters😟).

We have outdoor access point, like EAP110-Outdoor and EAP225-Outdoor, while it need connect to the existing network by ethernet cable, while it is against your request.
And we do have some network expansion device, like range extender and powerline adapters; for the former one, it will connect to the existing network by wireless to extend the wifi range, for the latter one, the main unit will connect to the main router, and the extender unit can be relocated to extend the network, they communicate with each other via powerline. While they are all indoor devices.

@aukemeijer can I ask if the following is possible:
Deco mesh network > connect an TP-Link EAP225 via ethernet to one of the decos > connect further decos to the network tha the TP-Link EAP225 repeats. For example a deco mesh is in a house, then the TP-Link EAP225 covers a garden, then further decos are set up in another building. Would this work?

@Kevin_Z hello.
The EAP225-Outdoor says its mesh.
And the point from our customers buying the deco devices coz of the mesh technology.
And many villas here have big gardens. And we need to add the outdoor access point to the mesh network. Not to be a stand alone AP.
So is there anyway to do that or not! If not then i cant recommend the deco mesh for villas
