I wish I had one of these 😩
I used to run the service through the app on my Samsung TV and it ran mostly ok before Samsung pulled the plug on it last year.
I tried setting up a second PC to run it through but I get awful frame loss even on a wired connection, and even in the Steam menus!

They’re like 30 bucks on eBay.

Ya, I’ve thought about it. I’ve always figured they’d stop working at some point, but then a post like this shows up, heh.

You can also install the software on them on a raspberry pi or something, and set it up to boot into it automatically.
For the price, it can give you better Network connection and moderately better performance. It’s not super significant though, just another way to do it if you have a spare device laying around.

Yikes, if a Raspberry Pi can handle it, then something must be really wrong with my spare PC setup. It’s got a 4690k and a GTX 950 in there. Don’t know what it could be though, fiddled with every setting I could think of.
