Just like the title suggests, I have the stuff mentioned above, but for some reason my Powerline Adapter, which is advertised to give up to 600mbps, is only giving me 94.

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but google dropped me here and the info isnt exactly right on this page.
Current TP-Link powerline adapters up to their AV600 series only have a 10/100M port. Everything above that upgrades to gigabit. Its in the spec, its on the box, its on the webpage, its in the product sort options, its even written on the product.
I have tested alot of their products trying to find a solution. Most recently their AV600 series vs the AV1000.
Through their own utility, a pair of AV600's shows a transfer rate of 250Mbps between each other. Connecting a laptop to the other end confirms what we already know. The laptop shows a 100m ethernet connection and my internet speed test shows 30-40Mbps while my internet speed at my switch tests at 300Mbps.
Performing the exact same test in the exact same outlets but with the AV1000 shows a 750Mbps connection between them , a 1.0Gbps connection on the laptop and speed test comes back with 275Mbps+ every time.
Hell, TP-Link even says it in their disclaimer " Actual data speeds vary and may be limited by the
product’s Ethernet port and other network conditions such as data traffic, electrical noise, and wiring issues. "
That same disclaimer is not on the products with a gigabit port. They have also confirmed this themselves several times over in their own forums.
All that being said. You want these on the same circuit and avoid power strips if at all possible. If you need an internet outlet on a budget, the non gigabit versions work fine. If your internet connection is on the higher side (or even 100Mb), I would start at the AV1000.
