Did you consider using homeplug, IEEE 1901, or some other network over powerline standard? I imagine it being more reliable if they're all behind the same breaker.

Unfortunately, AC powerlines are extremely noisy. Powerline comms are used by SolarEdge to communicate with their optimizers. Because it’s a small closed loop there is far less noise than the home grid.
