    I’ve given that a shot and just can’t stand the input lag I get, even on LAN, unfortunately, I’m glad it works for others though.

    And I don’t like to use hotel or other public WiFi when I travel, I’d rather just have the device in hand

      That’s surprising to hear, for me the latency is not noticeable even over WAN. We’ve had VR capable streaming for years now, and area where latency issues cause physical sickness.

      You might have a network level issue. Gigabit ethernet to the host, WiFi 5 or better for the client, QoS configured to prioritize both devices in the router settings?

        I think a wired connection is the key, one of my house projects this winter is running Ethernet through the attic finally

          Having both on a different connection is essential!

          If you have a spare router, you could connect it via ethernet to the host and then connect your client to that WiFi.

          Host would then be able to maintain its internet connection over WiFi and there would be a separate dedicated LAN just for the stream.
