I wasn't getting the speeds I wanted with the Zyxel powerline adapters, even though they are supposed to be "up to 500mbps". I was also still getting the connection dropping out, and also dropping down the connection strength to medium and low at random times.
So, I had a 30m cat5 cable I was using for the CCTV, so I've used that and ran it down stairs under the carpets into the living room, and direct into the router.
This is MUCH better!
