Compare powerline and wireless technologies to understand their differences.
Typically, the electrical setup in your home influences how well a powerline adapter works. For Wi-Fi, the outcome varies based on the specific adapter and router you have. Without additional details, it's hard to say which option is superior.
I’d install a flat Cat6 cable and some command strips, connecting it this way, which should be more affordable than any wireless setup or new router configurations.

AC Wi-Fi generally outperforms powerline in bandwidth, though this varies based on interference, wall penetration, standards, outlet wiring quality, and adapter specifications.
