Slow wired speeds through powerlines (alien.top)

So I have a gigabit plan, and use tp link AV1000 powerlines to provide wired connection upstairs however I only receive speeds of around 150Mbps, I'm using all cat5e and cat6 ethernet cables, is there any thing I can do to increase speeds or anything I'm missing that could be limiting the speeds?

If you're getting 150Mb on AV1000's, you might get better performance by replacing them with G.hn adapters, such as the Zyxel PLA6456. I see them on e-bay at decent (used) prices every now and then.

I do stress "might". . .
