Today we test GeForce Now for Steamdeck, see what it does for Cyberpunk, etc. I’ve heard good things. Plz Xfinity, plz…

Curious to see how it goes! What kind of internet setup do you have through Xfinity? I recently switched to gigabit fiber after it was rolled out in my neighborhood, before that I probably wouldn't have even attempted something like GeForce Now That said, I used to do okay several years ago with both my son and me playing via Stadia over our old cable internet provider, so who knows

I have a 1.1gb plan, which usually clocks around 900mbps. The bigger challenge, maybe, is latency from my mesh network. Dad might be goin’ to Bestbuy today for new routers 😎

I have two Eero Pro 6E Wi-Fi routers at opposite ends of my house connected via Ethernet through the attic, plugged into a pair of network switches to provide additional Ethernet ports for wired devices at both locations If you can link your Wi-Fi routers together via Ethernet rather than using the WiFi mesh function I think it'll be a huge difference The Eero in my living room connects to the fiber modem and functions as the gateway, then is patched through the network switch to the Eero in my office that functions in access point mode, using the Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi for mesh (I use Eero because it's what my fiber provider can connect to support directly) What kind of latency do you see at fast dot com? For reference, here's screenshots of what I get for latency in my office through the access point on Ethernet (left) and WiFi (right) Perhaps a comparison with your figures will let you know whether you could improve by connecting your mesh via Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi Hope this makes sense lol
