I purchased a powerline adapter starter kit to increase my speeds on my PS4 on the opposite side of my apartment. After doing so my speeds jumped from 10mbps wireless to 25mbps with the powerline adapter. This is great news, but I won't lie that I'm a bit underwhelmed. I'm capable of getting 105mbps if wired directly from my modem. I was expecting maybe 50mbps at worse. Are these speeds normal?
I did purchase the 200mbps powerline adapter instead of one capable of 500 or 600. Not sure if my speeds would be faster had I purchased one with higher capacity, since my speeds don't reach even 200mbps.
Oh, and I'm not sure if maybe my outlets are not on the same circuit. Though I'm in a 1000sqft apartment with only one breaker, so I didn't think I would have more than one circuit. My knowledge starts to dip out when talk of circuits, wiring, and electrician speak comes up.
