noob harware question to get wifi into my shipping container

hello! i need help selecting hardware to get a wifi signal from a google nest about 100 feet away and tunnel it into my shipping container tiny home.

the signal is strong outside the container but zero signal inside.

i want to pick up the signal with a device that will output to an ethernet cable. then i can run the cable inside to a router and have wifi in the container.

that at least is my hope. is this called a bridge? i don't need a booster, just an antenna, right?

this device SEEMS to be close to what I'm looking for:

is this overkill? it says it goes 7km, i only need 100 feet.

thank you in advance r/networking !
