I'm guessing the "TP-Link" kit are powerline adapters? They rely on your house wiring and circuits, so they never really work well. They are at best a decent stop gap for people who don't want or can't install a proper cable solution. Don't forget, if you are thinking of cables, they can be run outside of a property to get from one floor to another, it is not restricted to internals.
