Help picking powerline adapter for Virgin M200 gigabit internet

Hi, we've just had M200 internet installed from Virgin. Wifi has always been a bit of a problem in this house, so I want to try a powerline adapter for my desktop PC, which I use for gaming. Details on M200 are here: https://www.virginmedia.com/shop/broadband/speeds
I want a powerline adapter that has passthrough, and can utilise the internet speeds. I've seen several posts on the internet talking about needing to upgrade their powerline adapters after installing M200 internet (such as this one: https://community.virginmedia.com/t5/Speed/M200/td-p/4343370). I just want to make sure I buy the right one from the start.
1 port would be fine I think. Please would someone be able to advise the best one to buy?
Some powerline adapters have 'gigabit' in their product info, but as outlined in the second link, I'm just cautious because older ones seem to say up to 600 mbps and it doesn't hit that due to the speed of the ethernet ports.
It's all a bit confusing!
Looking to spend around £50 I think.
Thanks!
Ben
