Powerline networking 500 or 200 ?

[subinjose]

I'm planning to network using powerline adapter for gaming. I know it's not the best solution but i don't have any other choice.

My doubt is to buy whether a 500Mbps or 200Mbps.

Will this 500 Mbps increase performance ?

With powerline you won't see nearly those speeds, so may as well get the 500 to get the highest you can get.

why using powerline adapter isn't the best solution?

As i know, it is a best way in home use, especially i don't want to running a new wire.

200mbps cheaper, 500mbps faster.
