Before I spend tons of time trying to debug some intermittent connectivity issues I wanted to ask if some of you were also on the beta channel and experienced issues with streaming since yesterday. I think my issues started around when the update for the Frame arrived, but I was also trying out a seated game outside my normal play area so I don’t have a perfect apples to apples comparison. For me its about 80% smooth sailing but sometimes I get a 5-20 second dropout in visuals, not the usual second or two I get when I turn my head too fast (that is probably caused by my subpar WiFi which we currently don’t have a setting to disable for streaming). These dropouts don’t return me to the passthrough as would be expected, they last for much longer, and happens out of the blue, even if I don’t turn my head risking destabilising the 6GHz connection.
I remember there being a setting to disable multi-link. I think then it should stay with the dongle.
Can’t test it though. My graphics card (Vega 64) seems to be too old for streaming. Gotta get around to making a bug report about that.
I have already tested that setting. It disables the dongle and goes WiFi only. Nothing seems to ve able to do the opposite.
Leave WiFi enabled and manually disconnect any WiFi you’re connected to on the steam frame. It’s not an ideal solution but it does let you stream exclusively over the dongle.
