I would recommend the netgear 1200 series. They are pretty reliable. You may need more than one depending on your home. You can have up to 16 in your home without issues. 

Just a heads up, some homes wiring is wonky so it may become troublesome. Sometimes installing addition powerline kits can help as they act as relays essentially. 

Be sure to @Pickles von Brine if you want me to see your reply!

You will need to buy a two pack. One goes by your router and plugged in. The other near your PC.

Powerline is a very hit-or-miss solution that relies heavily on your home wiring. It can work well or be worse than Wi-Fi.

 

Circumstantially Wi-Fi could be faster/more reliable. You'll just have to try it and see if it works for you.

I purchased a set from Newegg from TP Link and they were fine for powerline. It really depends on house wiring, and what circuit you're on. If you're on the same, it's not so bad.
