How to connect TV without wires?

Good afternoon! There is television from Rostelecom (and their set-top box with ethernet), excellent wi-fi coverage in the apartment (68m2) and the inability to lay a twisted pair cable to the TV.
Two solutions come to mind:
1) PLC adapters (for example, TP-LINK TL-PA7010P KIT)
2) Wi-fi - Lan bridge (for example, using MikroTik mAP lite)
I didn’t deal with PLC, so I’m afraid of possible problems with connection stability .
As for MikroTik mAP lite, it comes out cheaper and there is no dependence / problems on electrical wiring.
Stability is important. Please tell me what is better to choose. Thank you in advance.

In the apartment, that is, in apartment buildings, the dominance of Wi-fi. There were cases when the connection lagged even two meters from the gigabit router, with only 5 neighboring networks. And there were cases when the list of networks occupied several pages in the analyzer.
So only wire and only PLC. Don't listen to the airmen. If the repair, then the cable really can not be thrown, and modern PLC adapters will save. In general, Internet TV does not require a wide channel, gigabit adapters are enough. Problems can only arise with old wiring and if you want to watch movies >= 4K

There is Wi-Fi on it: IPTV SML-5050 set-top box .

Google it, most of the current IPTV set-top boxes get along well with some USB whistles, only on the router you will need to be confused by forwarding the IPTV VLAN to the IPTV SSID.
