Internet for detached shop

I have AT&T home internet and have built a residential shop several hundred feet away. I have an office setup in the shop and need internet there too but it is the same address. I really need a new line and modem for the shop but I want it on the same account. What options do I have?

it must be a different address, 1 account 1 modem per address  your option is to run a cat 5 cable to the other building or use wireless or go with a different provider for service in the building

Several hundred feet away… Ethernet has a max distance reach of 100 meters or 328 feet.

Either go thru the process of establishing the shop as a separate address, zoning, USPS, etc or consider cellular or satellite internet service. All (3) involve having a separate account from home address. 

I suspect moving the shop 200 feet+ closer would be more costly than separate internet service.
