I placed an order for a TP-link AV1000 powerline Ethernet device to switch from Wi-Fi, but I'm experiencing much slower performance. My typical Wi-Fi speeds are around 250 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload, whereas the powerline connection is only 15 Mbps download and 10 Mbps upload. The powerline is plugged directly into the wall, not through a power strip. Any advice or solutions?

Utilize the nearby powerlines and measure the connection speeds.

They offer WAPs based on area measurements. At work I often handle around 10,000 square feet of space. For individuals, simply search online to determine your current size and adjust accordingly. The largest option available for a home user is the ASUS model covering 5,000 square feet. I noticed a NightHawk AX6 priced at 3,500 sq ft, but it seems you should disable the DDOS protection on those devices... It might be worth considering another brand.

I'll simply paste what you shared from another discussion. I don't believe I've ever picked a wireless router solely by its claimed coverage range. These numbers usually get exaggerated, especially when assuming ideal conditions.

If your two ends are on separate breakers, it can severely disrupt your signal. Also, GFCI and AFCI devices, often found in modern homes, will cause the same issue. Power line problems are usually the main concern.
