Reply to comment by Starmina in Nvidia kills off GameStream on Shield, points users to Steam by thebelsnickle1991

My fiber connection makes my wifi output better, not everyone has fiber so it can be tough to compare. Not sure what you found confusing about that?

Sure not directly, but fibre does allow for higher theoretical speeds and more importantly greater simultaneous upload and download speeds. Higher maximum up/down speeds will translate to faster Wifi if your router and devices can support them.

Well, the LAN speed shouldn’t change at all, unless the previous router was garbage. And still, this has nothing to do with fiber.

Bro, you were the one who pointed out the Fibre, which was a small detail in my suggestion. What's your problem?

Because it’s the whole point of your comment and it’s completely wrong, it could be misguiding other people thinking fiber has anything to do with that.

My whole point is that the Steam Link app isn't terrible over wifi. Only mentioned I had Fibre because I thought it made a difference on wifi but you were right on that fact. The more you know!

Specifically when I got fiber internet installed, a new router came with that that improved the connection I had before.
