do you want it to be small and compact, or will any size do? and do want it to be a certain color?

homeplug/powerline repeater uses ethernet cable to connect to modem/router and uses the electrical wiring to transmit data so will be like plugging straight to router/modem. homeplug much more reliable and less clutter, but some models don't have ac passthrough. wireless less clutter, just hide in your pc and point your antenna in the correct direction. but can be flaky sometimes and will weaken if got something(wall) blocking the way. since yours no wall, wireless should be fine ba, but if you wanna play online competitive games then best you get homeplug.

tp-link is good, but all brands have their shining stars and rotten eggs. their pa6010 and wpa4230p starter kits looks interesting, can consider that. not sure about prices though so you'll have to check in hardwarezone. do note that you'll need 2 for them to work, so get the starter kits instead of just 1 of them
