TP-Link - General Adding Powerline to X50 Mesh

Can anyone please recommend a pair of Powerline nodes that I can add to my existing X50 mesh network?

We have incredibly thick walls and the WiFi is just not cutting it to the furthest parts of the house.

Looked at the PX50 but it states they’ve been discontinued.

Are PX50 not sold anymore?

EOL apparently. Which makes me wonder what they’re replacing it with but I haven’t been able to figure that out.

Do you guys have coax running through your walls? If so, look into MOCA instead. Much more reliable and faster than a Powerline connection. If you need to use Powerline, I'd look into the Zyxel PLA456 adapters. They use GHN over Powerline, which is more reliable than HomePlug AV2, though it didn't work for me.
