You won't need to update/buy anything new (just the homeplug kit).

What router does he currently have?

These are quite cheap. £19 a plug - FlaVes85 - HomePlug - 85Mbps. 3 pinned UK plugs, works with any access point and router.

That's a £38 solution for networking through your mains electric. Now compare that to buying a new N router which can set you back £70.00+ notes and then a N adapter which can set you back a further £40.00+ notes, I'd say that the homeplug option is a bargain.
I like the idea, and tbh i think thats going to be my new setup at my house! But unless i can get everything plugged in it wont stop the problem in total. If someone can confirm that i can connect a switch or such to the other end of the homeplug then it would be an absolute bargain.
