I'm streaming to Link wirelessly via a 4yr old stock ISP router. Windows 10. My living room TV is one floor below, in the opposite corner to my router / PC (fairly small house).
I had a strange first half hour. At first the stream would struggle and freeze within seconds; sometimes at the Steam logo, other times when browsing BPM. Hardware encoding didn't seem to do anything so I whacked all settings down to minimum and got a slight improvement, stream looked like it was running 15fps.
Left Rocket League running for about 10min whilst I had lunch, thinking that I would have to go grab some power line adaptors.
But then noticed that it looked a bit smoother. Had a choppy kick-around and the stream continued to improve, so I started bumping up settings bit by bit.
And shortly after?Fucking butter smooth on max settings. And it's been like that ever since. No perceptible lag and perfect picture quality.
It seemed like my devices just needed a bit of time to warm up and adjust themselves to communicating with each other- but it could have been just some temp interference for all I know.
I absolutely love it though, and I'm really surprised at how good the image quality is. It's easy to use, hidden away, but ever-present; it does the job.
I still need to do some more testing (i.e. putting my router under additional strain, and a nice long Rocket League session) but so far so good!
