You're considering using a wired connection for your Steam Link setup. Given your router is already in the room with the TV, connecting via Ethernet should provide a stable link. Your PC's WiFi card is solid enough for this purpose, so the connection should work well. The main concern would be ensuring the cable is properly routed and there are no interference issues.

It didn't function. I've attempted it before but it didn't succeed.

Really? As long as the Wi-Fi connects to the same router as the Ethernet, it functions well for me.

Yes, a NVIDIA Shield TV would likely perform better. You're in the same situation.

It would function properly, just anticipate some delay. They suggest using a wired link between both ends, but it's not mandatory.

It should function, though the delay remains a concern. Honestly, my experience shows some noticeable lag even over Ethernet, which seems almost inevitable.

It seems a few adjustments were needed for your router settings.

Many routers divide the wired and Wi-Fi networks automatically by default.

Connected or not, it's all about the signal.

They do that too, which bothers when trying to connect a wired device over WiFi. A certain router tends to cut them off without any adjustments—just a reset solves the problem. Some people mentioned it should function if the router is configured differently, though latency could still be a concern.
