So you would say that an upgrade would fix the problem? Like for sure or is that just a possible fix. Which kit would you recommend? I really have no idea about that I'm sorry xd

Would it forsure fix the slow down? No clue.
Each home is different. and some homes dont' work well for powerline devices because of wiring, interference, distance, etc.
So I can't say 100% it'll fix your slow down.
Why are you using powerline?
have you looked into mesh systems or moca adapters?
how big is your home?
What are the interior walls made of?
