Hello Everyone,
So, I recently needed to relocate my PC, and I'm having a hell of a time with throttled speeds on my current Wifi adapter. I am currently using an Archer T9E Wifi Adapater with a PCI. My current issue, is that I due quite a large amount of gaming across various games and platforms and I'm being throttled on download.
My current internet plan is a 150/125MBs plan and I am losing a very large amount of performance, particularly on download currently with the T9E. I am tossing around the idea of buying/running a drop cable for Ethernet across the distance required, but recently, a buddy mentioned Power Line adapters to me and I've been doing quite a bit of reading on them.
My main concern with Power line is they seem to be a hit or miss technology across the multiple brands/manufacturers/models, and even more so with the capacity for impact caused by internal wiring within the home when using Power Line.
Overall, I'm just curious as to what you lot would recommend when it comes to this situation. I'd be running my first ever drop cable for Ethernet, and in a domestic setting with the router being in a living room, and the PC being located in a bedroom/office area about 50 feet away. I'm open to any suggestions, comments, or questions.
Thank you Kindly,
Yami
