Where the router is situated there is only one wall socket. From this I have a 4 way plugged in which has a DECT phone, Home Hub and modem. Can I plug a home plug into the spare socket on the 4 way and what sort of speed could i expect?

How are you speed testing the PS3
If it's via the network diagnostics option take it with a pinch of salt as it's often woefully inaccurate.
I think the PSN gets somewhat congested during peak time as downloads from it tend to be rather slow compared to say a download on your PC.
You can get Powerline adapters with a pass-through socket in.
Comtrends latest ones definitely a pass through power socket, but they use UPA instead of homeplug.
Pretty sure I've seen some other homeplug adaptors with power pass through as well, might have been some Ebuyer own brand ones or somewhere like that.
