Comment on Steam deck LAN? And game suggestions?
beastlykings@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoHave they still not fixed or properly implemented adhoc Wi-Fi yet? Seems like a fairly big deal. Especially if you and your spouse are on a plane or train or something.
I mean, you could always use one of those pocket Wi-Fi routers. I keep one in my travel bag at all times for hotel Wi-Fi that tries to limit the number of devices, and to bypass the Wi-Fi login screen for my Chromecast that I also keep with me.

If I recall correctly, you can startup adhoc wifi in desktop mode, but I don’t think there’s a convenient way to do it in gamemode.

That was what I was expecting, without trying. Maybe it’s just the right Decky add-on away? I have used add-ons for enabling VPNs so this should be possible, if not done already.

Hmm maybe I’ll have to look into it again. I remember trying it once a year or two ago, and running into some known bug where it looked like it was gonna work, but never did. Updates happen though. I’m fine with doing it from desktop mode, if it works. Kludgy, but I can understand it’s not a priority to implement.
