Do powerline adapters have better speeds than WIFI repeaters?

I've noticed with my BT wifi disc repeater, I get half the speeds of my router, meant to be getting over 500mbps but am only getting around 180-200 mbps from the disc, probably because the walls in my house are very thick, despite it being quite a small house.

Will something like a 1200mbps tp-link work better?

If your Wi-Fi is struggling to get through those thick walls, it might be time for a little intervention from technology’s finest! Think of it like trying to have a conversation through a wall—sometimes you need a megaphone. Enter the TP-Link Deco series, your very own digital wall-buster. It’s like giving your Wi-Fi a superhero cape and telling it to zoom through those obstacles. With speeds that could make a cheetah jealous and coverage that’ll make you wonder if walls even exist, this mesh system could turn your Wi-Fi woes into a thing of the past. Say goodbye to buffering and hello to uninterrupted streaming—your thick walls don’t stand a chance!

I have Decos and haven't been impressed with them to be honest. They drop out a lot.
