I used them briefly a few years ago for similar reasons, mainly old solid
walls.
As Rick said they were slow!
The other big thing I found (bear in mind it was few years ago) was the fact
that they only worked satisfactorily if on the same circuit. i.e. if the
signal went through the consumer unit the RCCBs attenuated it. I stopped
using the adapters and went for a wired solution using WAPs. There are some
manufacturers that make some WAPS with higher power output which may go
through the walls OK.
Another solution I looked at was TP-Link devices that have the directional
antennas and fit them in the roof spaces pointing downwards through the
timber ceilings etc.
