  Why does it suck? Asking because i wanted to buy a deck and i will definitely use it for streaming.

    it doesn’t handle 5ghz very well, which leads to insane artifacting and input lag spikes

      This is sad to hear. What streaming app do you use? Steam Link or Moonlight? On my Shield TV moonlight is insanely better than steam link

        I used xCloud actually. It handled Sunshine moderately well but steam link sucked

    Compared to my laptop or phone, when I’m in the furthest spot away from the AP, it will drop out. Other devices stay connected, just slow down

      I noticed that yesterday with my deck, I was a bit far away from the AP yesterday and while my phone was connected fine the deck wasn’t able to connect at all; it put a pause on me trying to resume AC6 on the deck until I could get it back in range to update.
