Hi guys, looking for a bit of help regarding homeplugs.

Recently, we've been trying (unsuccessfully) to stream HD movie and TV files from my PC to our HDTV via PS3 Media Server. Streaming SD works, but HD is stuttering and buffers regularly.

We were told Homeplugs would be a better solution, but reading this topic has confused me a bit - do the speeds we get through Homeplugs depend on the speed of our phone line? We get about 8MB/s download speed, but are thinking of getting 200 MB/s homeplugs and connecting it as follows:

PC -> Home Hub 1 via Ethernet
Home plug 1 -> Home Hub via Ethernet
Home plug 2 -> PS3 via Ethernet

Will this give us enough speed to stream HD perfectly?

Thanks a lot guys, really appreciate it!
