Best Power line Ethernet?

I get 150 down, 65 up from Comcast, problem being in my old house there is only one Ethernet jack. It is upstairs at the far end of the house. So I was going to power line the router to a more cenretal point. Which power line adapter is going to give me best speed and latency? As it sits, I am getting 12 down in my bedroom via wifi and 50 down via wifi upstairs. I would like to make that a little more even across the entire house.  My router is the ASUS RT-AC66U

I'm using a Zyxel set and liking it. you want to make sure whatever you get is "HomePlug 2" rated, which is the latest standard. 500Mb/s or higher rating would also be good. This way you shouldn't have to replace it until they break.

Looking to buy GTX690, other multi-GPU cards, or single-slot graphics cards:

look on newegg

and get one with good reviews

they are all basically the same

 

keep in mind they only work good on good modern copper wiring

 

also...update your router to the asus merlin firmware
