powerline PL 1000v2 adding extra outlet
Hello I have a 1000V2 that works fine at home but I need an additional outlet to reach more rooms in my house in France. I am not sure what outlet to buy, can I buy the EX61300 or the EX 730...

Maybe I need to reword :
I currently have a Powerline 1000V2 in my home. I bought it few years ago because some part of my house where too far from my router and i could not get any wifi in these rooms.
Now I want to reach (i.e. provide wifi) even more rooms that are even further away.
What would you suggest/advise I do on to my exisitng system (Powerline 1000 V2) in order to reach (have wifi) more rooms that are further away ?
hopefully clearer now

Both the answers you received still apply. You haven't added much in the way of new information.
My first move would be to see if you can get your existing equipment to provide wifi in the rooms you want to reach.
If that works, then decide if you want to buy more Powerline equipment, with or without built in AP, or if you want to use wifi extenders, either in repeater or AP mode.
