Okay, so this is the first computer(s) I've ever built. They are fairly similar. I ran into an issue with the mobo, as I cheaped out on it regrettably and am not fond of it. I plan to return it, but am on a limited budget.
Currently my internet speed is 105 mb/s download. I need to know which would be better a powerline such as http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-PA2010KIT-Powerline-Adapter-Starter/dp/B00AWRUIY4/ref=pd_sim_147_5?ie=UTF8&refRID=1G0HCYCKC248Y19XNT3N or a USB wifi dongle.
To clarify, I will be needing this for two computers, that I plan to be building. Both or Micro ATX
Here are the specs
PC1
CPU: Intel Core i3 4170
PSU: EVGA 110B 750W Bronze+
GPU: Asus Strix 960
Case: Cooler Master Elite 130
RAM: GSkill Ripjaw X 2133 240 pin
HDD: WD Blue 1TB
SSD: Kingston 240 GB
PC2
Case: CoolerMaster Elite 130
CPU: Intel Core i3 4170
GPU: EVGA Super clocked 750ti
PSU: EVGA 500b 80+ bronze 500W
RAM: Gskill Ripjaw X 2133 240 pin
HDD: WD Blue 1TB
SSD: Kingston 120 GB
The current mobo is ASRock H97M-ITX/ac LGA 1150
I plan to upgrade PC 1 to MSI Z97M Gaming LGA 1150
And PC 2 to GIGABYTE GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5 LGA 1150
So not sure if this is confusing or not (probably is lol, sorry)
I need recommendations for wifi/powerline/internet thing for both, as neither will be near the router.
I also need recommendations for mobo's I think I have good ones selected, and I have them with future proofing (actually more like upgrading in the future) in mind.
If there's any issues with my build please let me know. I have ordered the parts, but they just arrived a day or two ago, so I can return if necessary. I've tried to do extensive research into this, but planning and building two at once got a bit confusing.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

. I snagged a qpack3 and a thermal take (thermaltake was another great deal, usually 69 but got a 20 dollar rebate card and 15% off. So pretty nice lol)
