You have a couple of options. You can buy Powerline devices that include a wifi access point. Unfortunately, Netgear does not sell single wifi only plugs, so you have to buy them as a pair.

You can buy AP plugs from other makers and they shou
ld work with your Netgear Powerline network.
Or you can buy a wireless extender that will operate in access point mode and plug the extender into the LAN port of your Powerline plug.
Thanks
