Granted, I've only tried on 2 detached garages, but in all those cases, I didn't really find the powerline worked very well. Either didn't work at all due to the wiring, was finicky/slow or wasn't designed for sub-zero temps. That subzero facet is killer on those types of units.
Also, at $50 a pair for a good one, I kinda think it makes more sense now to just apply that amount towards upgrading a piece of equipment that was designed to work outdoors or upgrading to an ethernet to wireless bridge.
Worth trying if you have one lying around or can get a used pair for super cheap, but I wouldn't specifically buy one to try it.
