Thanks for the response. If you don’t mind, was your homeplug gigabit or one of the 500-600 Mb models? I know even the gigabit model doesn't quite hit full speed, but it’s at least a reference point for me.

Hi. Gigabit. The long story is that on some plugs I get very good throughout (800 mbps according to the tplink app) but as luck would have it where I wanted to put the orbi it dropped in half - must be a different sub circuit. And of course 400 isn’t 400 - it is shared up and down so it reduced the broadband to an effective 200 max.
