We used powerline Ethernet for awhile…it worked but wasn’t the greatest.
Then we switched over to Netgear R6300v2 AC1750 wireless and can get nice wireless speed all over the house.
For the first month or two we saw quite a few drops on some devices, but something seems to have changed where I can’t recall seeing a problem in many months. And we get all the speed we need at our Roku box two rooms away from the router.
If the R6300 still doesn’t cover the whole house, I would go with the extender recommended above.
