Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 9, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 9, 2020 Likely there was wireless contention using 5GHz, it is also less table than 2.4GHz so if you want to play on WiFi would always suggest 2.4GHz. Glad you managed to fix it though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkshirelion Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 Hi again, First time I have been able to test Stadia again in some time and it’s basically unplayable for me at the moment in 4K, stutter and lag. I turned off all the QOS and when I’m launching games I’m seeing messages saying my connection is unstable, both wired and 5Ghz. I have 64-65Mbps available and multiple different speed tests show my connection is performing well with a low ping but Stadia is just not having it. I think it is just my internet connection.

What makes you think it is just your general internet connection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to someone at Stadia and they recommended I turn off HDR as for some reason it needs more bandwidth, they said it adds 20% at 1080p and 80% more at 4K. Doing that seems to have sorted it out, I can now play at 4K 5.1 and it seems stable, haven’t tried anymore testing with other clients connected but on its own it is streaming better.

That's great news, thanks for posting the solution, 80% more at 4K is ludicrous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem, I didn’t even consider this could be the case, it still looks like similar usage to me in the network monitor but it must spike as I haven’t seen the unstable message since turning off HDR. I’m having a great time with the mesh now, I reset and created separate 2.4 and 5ghz networks and everything seems to be humming along nicely so thanks. Also thanks for the replies and support appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
