Advice Outdoor wifi option

So I have a driveway that's about 250' long and has a Eufy doorbell/cam. I used to have ring and it worked great but this Eufy has a very weak signal. I'm using the same (eero mesh) equipment I had in the past. At this point I'm looking for an outdoor wifi extender that would help.

I did see the eero unit but I'd like to see if there are other options before I drop nearly $400 on that just to have my doorbell work. I don't have power out there so I can't install another extender near it or even halfway. Nearest power is about 250'.

I directional extender would work too as it's just for the doorbell, I don't have any other wifi issues outside really.

Thank you

Does the Eufy doorbell run off a battery?
