Windows 10: Powerlines

I use a powerline AV500 by Netgear, I get 16mb and 9mb from my internet connection.
I'm paying for 100mb down and 10mb up.
When I use my WiFi I get 25mb and 9 mb from the same connection.

What should I do to maximize what I get from my Internet connection?

Connected to ethernet but Windows not totally convinced

Oh, so you mean that the computer is connected to a powerline adapter before?

If you were able to go online without the powerline adapter, then maybe there is no connection passing through that adapter.

What is the model of your powerline adapter?

 

Ethernet Constantly Loses Connection

It depends on the setup, Wesley. Since both computers are sharing the same powerline adapter, there's a possibility that one of the PCs may lose internet connection. Getting another powerline and another Ethernet cable for your other computer will surely
help you get a stable connection. However, there are still other factors that may trigger internet connection issues when using Powerline adapters. I suggest that you get in touch with your router or powerline adapter support team so they can properly guide
you through the setup. You may no longer need to get another set if everything is properly set up.

Feel free to let us know if you need further help.

That device is simply for using your house electrical wiring to extend your computer's connection to your Router, intended to make things easier than running Ethernet cable. The Internet exists from the Router out. There are possible issues with the wiring in the house in lowering your Network speed which is not the same as the Internet access speed. I'd plug a computer into the Router using an Ethernet cable to determine what your download speed is and if not getting somewhat close to what your are paying for contact your ISP.

You should realistically get about 85 Mbps through a Netgear AV500. I use the same type and can stream video through three floors without delay, except one room where connection grinds to a halt. It depends on the wiring; the age of the electrics; the circuits in the house; etc.
