Powerline Ethernet if you domestic mains wiring is up to it.
Does just what you want for many people.
I just ordered the Netgear Powerline 2000 + extra outlet. I hope that does what I'm looking for. Thanks for all the help with alternatives.

Did you order one of them, or did you order the pair of them that you

That's fine. Netgear does not sell single plugs so that's a red herring.
A further thought, newer Powerline plugs can turn up with "sleep mode" (power saving) activated by default. Don't panic if you see signs of that. Drop by the Powerline bit of this place. There's an easy answer, but don't worry about that until it happens.
