The application interface and all it’s other options streamed well, I could see the color details fine and navigating to the different games was fast considering is wifi connected not much delay during this experience and is more so while connected to the game.Ĭonnecting the steam link to my desktop computer was straight forward once I found out that both devices need to be connected on the same internet connection. Later I found out that the steam link box needs to be connected to the same wireless connection on the network, doing that was the only way I was able to find the desktop which is the system I’ll be streaming from when I had the computer wired in and not on the same wifi it was not found. Overall the connection was a bit confusing and more so when choosing which internet connection to use, like most of us use wireless on laptop and devices where as a desktop may be connected using a wire when streaming is always recommended to go hard wire and so I did from the desktop side. This can get tricky, especially if you move it from device to device, because of Bluetooth idiosyncrasies.Connecting the steam link to my samsung smart tv was a good idea at the time, the ability to stream my games over to the big screen was exciting it reminded me of the same idea microsoft pulled with the xbox one streaming feature as well. As noted earlier this week, Steam quietly enabled Bluetooth support in the Steam Controller in preparation for this launch. Then you connect your Bluetooth controller to the device. It also means your streaming box or phone has to be attached to the same network and the bandwidth needs to be pretty constant. That's because it sends whatever's coming off the video card to the app. If you've never used Steam's streaming, you should note that it completely takes over your system, simultaneously displaying the streamed game. First, you enable and set up Steam's in-home streaming feature within the desktop Steam application on a host system attached to your network. There are three steps to setting up the system. In that sense, the clean, easy-to-use interface is a welcome surprise. So it's set the bar pretty low in what we expect from the company on mobile. Valve's been lagging in its app development if you judge by its current Steam mobile app (on both Android and iOS), which is clunky, ugly and missing some capabilities.
