As part of a major house refurb I ran CAT5e everywhere around the house I could think of and still wish I'd run a bit more. One tip - most ranges of electrical socket offer a "Euro Faceplate" option for pretty trivial money, into which you can fit standard CAT5e Euro Modules (I used basic Connectix stuff - 'from here' (https://www.cablemonkey.co.uk/cat5e-modules-and-wall-outlets/23-cat5e-utp-rj45-module-euromod-size-5056045700233.html) without a single failure). This works out a *lot* less expensive than using the Cat5e sockets offered by eg MK, blends with your existing power sockets and I think the quality is better as well. As to Powerline - I put a couple of mid-range TP-Link units into my parents-in-law 1930's very solid house (having lost the debate about running Cat5e there...) and they work really well - as per previous comments you can ignore the quoted "speeds" but they've transformed the WiFi coverage around their house, so I'm not convinced that it's worth paying the significant premium that Devolo etc. charge.
