I wouldn't say so. Powerline ethernet adapters rate comically higher than they're actually able to sustain in throughput. Your wiring itself might be totally fine - it might be that you've just got poor adapters

I'm running D-Link DHP-701AV powerline ethernet and it's rated at 2000mb/s. I of course don't get that, but my wiring is 30+ years old and and it can sustain 150+ MB/s (bytes) easily.

If I were you I'd try upgrading your powerline adapter first, since it will take you very little time and you can just return it if it doesn't do it for you.
