But as I say, this doesn't seem to affect it. 22mbps seems to be the limit even within the same room.. Strange
It might be worth repeating the "pairing" procedure with both units, and also triple checking the cat5 cable you've been using, as unless you have the noisiest mains wiring in history, you should be getting more than 22mbit.

My house has most sockets on one ring main, but I've had an extra socket added using a previously unused 16A breaker. With both powerline units on the same ring I get a much better speed than having one unit on the ring main and the other on the new socket.
