Hello Rimit,

There is no easy way to modify a WiFi-enabled device to have a 10x increase in range. Wifi simply isn’t designed to operate over distances that large. If you need to communicate over a longer range wirelessly this is usually achieved with a point-to-point link, these need to be fixed at a permanent location so both ends of the link can still reach each other.
I’ve linked one example of a wifi link below.
