I recently received my Steam Deck OLED 512Gb and I noticed, in comparison to my LCD, that Wi-Fi reliability isn’t quite as good. For example, my LCD has full bars of Wi-Fi in the same part of the house and my OLED is a bar short from full coverage. Additionally, it seems that during game streaming, the OLED is more spotty and has more hiccups vs the LCD. Has anyone else had this issue and could Valve realistically fix this with upcoming software updates?

    I thought I was the only one. I have crazy high dl speeds, but the stability is a joke. I love to stream my gaming PC to the deck with moonlight and that pretty much doesn’t work now. It’ll just randomly go from a solid 1.2 gb to 100mb and cut the stream off. Wifi6e, 5ghz, it doesn’t matter, it just will not stay solid when my old deck would.

      Same here with moonlight. Sadly its unusable on the OLED. Will be working great one minute, then stuttering and disconnecting the next. It’s definitely an issue with the Steam Deck’s Wifi. If I toggle the Wifi Off and then back On, that will usually fix it… sometimes for a couple minutes… sometimes for a little longer.
