Hello,

I am currently receiving 120Mbps broadband to my home. As my PC and games console are located in my bedroom (joys of sharing a flat) I use powerline adaptors from D-link to connect to the router next door in the living room. Using web speed tests, I am currently getting 54Mpbs download speeds using the powerline adaptors (118 if connected directly to the router) and am wondering is it worth my while upgrading to 500Mbps now that they are relatively cheap in price (cheaper than when I bought the 200Mbps ones 3 years ago).

Any advice would be much appreciated.
