Power line adapter speeds slower than internet speeds.

[Sean_M]

So recently my ISP upgraded my equipment to now get speeds well over 300 Mbps down on my phone. This was great until I realized that my computer using its power line adapter as its only source of internet was getting speeds around 30 Mbps down. All the hardware I'm using is supposed to be capable of 1 Gibps speeds and my adapters are not too far away from one another. Is there any settings that I'm supposed to change? Anything I need to check? Please share any advise you have.

What model of powerline adapter?

Were you getting similar speeds prior or did your earlier plan make it so you wouldn't notice?

How old (roughly) is the wiring in your house?

Are the adapters on the same circuit or different?

Interference can be a pain to deal with when it comes to powerline so any number of things could be causing kneecapped speeds.

The powerline adapter is at TP link capable of 1000 Mbps 

The speed on my computer have remained the same before and after the upgrade (always 30)

the wiring in my house should be no older than 20 yrs

and the adapters are on separate circuits

These are the biggest limiters of PowerLine and they also happen to be the two things that home owners can't realistically do anything about.

Hmmm, I'm not super up to date on powerline stuff but you could try to repair them and see if that helps. I know being on different circuits and phases also plays into it but I know lately (past few years) they have become better at dealing with that so it doesn't hamper the speeds as much.
