Hi guys. I am in need of a powerline adapter as my room is the furthest from the router, around 25 meters with about 4 walls in between (2 major walls and 2 minor walls). My connection is good but not good enough for me to enjoy gaming online and being in Australia, I'm even more at a more disadvantage. No matter what the cost is, what would you guys recommend if you were in my situation.

I'm sure he's considered these options, and it's definitely not cheaper to run a cable from the router to a computer if you're not going to have it out in plain view or laying on the floor or something, in which case powerline is his most feasible option.

 

@Eufawria look up some of the trendnet powerline adapters, supposedly they're pretty decent, but do check all the reviews to confirm that a decent chunk are satisfactory.
