I set up Sunshine/Moonlight to play PC games on a TV via a Switch, although my annoying-ass wireless network is making this a pain recently. Sometimes I connect first try, othertimes I need to endlessly restart my PC and Switch until they happen to connect for some reason. I assume it might be a thing with the router having a automatic 2.4Ghz/5Ghz thing and maaaaybe if I switch that it'll stop being like this, but IDK. Plex is similar.
But anyway, I set this up to (re)play The Painscreek Killings with my mom. She's taking notes and helping solve the puzzles and I'm doing the inputs. I vaguely remember the mystery, mostly just the bad ending the game has, but the 90% of the game before that is really good. I gotta' play Scene Investigators their game after this where it leans even more into being a real detective game.
Definitely 2.4ghz auto switching that band is very congested everywhere
Would a router's ghz autoswitching cause devices such as Firesticks but not iPhones to NOT connect to Plex? I notice when a Firestick won't connect to my Plex server on the same local network my iPhone almost always will (like 90% of the time). I'll probably end up trying it out to at least eliminate another potential issue.
See, just connected first try right now.
