Wireless vs Powerline

My current wireless card sucks (its wireless g) so I am in the market for a new wireless card or powerline. I will mainly be using this for gaming so it needs to be good. I am looking for something under 100$. What should I get, it would be great if you include the exact model.

I assume that your router supports a newer standard than G right? If so, which one? Also, how far away are you from your router? (how many walls are between you, etc).

Corsair 900D | MSI MPower Max Z87 AC | i7-4790K @ 4.7Ghz | 1080 Ti SLI | 16GB Corsair Vengeance Pro 2400 
XSPC Raystorm | EK-FC Nickel GPU block/backplate | 2x Alphacool UT60 480mm & XT45 240mm | 11x Linus Edition NF-F12
Schiit Modi/Magni 2 Uber | 5" KRK Rokit G3 | KRK 10S2 | Acer Predator X34 | Dell S2716DG

Is there a particular reason you use Wireless versus using an ethernet connection? Also what is you internet speed, anything above 20Mbps is overkill for gaming.
