![]() ![]() I ran Cat6 Ethernet through the attic of my home so that I can physically hook into the network from various rooms in my house, but before I ran Ethernet I had ‘some’ luck using Powerline network adapters. Wireless has come a long way, but is still prone to dropped packets and interference, which can result in disconnects or poor performance when streaming games. While most of my home devices are connected to my home network using wifi, I’ve had mixed results trying to stream games over wireless. If at all possible, connect your streaming server and client to your network with physical Ethernet cabling.This laptop satisfied those requirements out of the gate, and I saved a chunk of cash by not upgrading the internals with additional overhead I probably would never use. ![]() ![]() Since all of the game processing and graphics are hosted on the desktop streaming server, the only thing that really mattered to me was having a laptop with solid build quality (I prefer all-metal laptops) and a clear FHD screen. I actually bought the Yoga C740 for the purpose of streaming media and games, and intentionally kept the base model specs.
