I tried game streaming on the worst wifi I could find. | Self-Hosted Game Streaming Stress Test

If you want to set something like this up for yourself, check out my latest tutorial video here: https://youtu.be/tzoN5rNHUvs?si=v4pVRyP8n0JALOuE For this video I wanted to try something a little more vlog-style, and I thought this weekend trip to a remote cabin would be a perfect opportunity to showcase the awesome power of game streaming. If you might be struggling to catch up on your backlog, self-hosted PC game streaming can be a great way to get some extra gaming hours in when you're away from your desk. To take that a step further, you can even game stream from other networks as well- so I put together a stress test at a remote cabin to see just how far you can take it. I've been super happy with my self-hosted PC game streaming, especially since switching to my latest iteration of Moonlight and BigBox, working together to provide a seamless experience on PC and emulated titles of all kinds of systems. You can catch that Moonlight + BigBox tutorial video here: https://youtu.be/tzoN5rNHUvs?si=v4pVRyP8n0JALOuE Equipment links: In this video, I used an Xbox Core Controller: https://amzn.to/3ZYfDvF iPad Pro: https://www.apple.com/ipad-pro/ Quest 2 VR headset: https://amzn.to/46rPAiE

Dylan Macintosh

Your tech journalist.

I nerd out so you don't have to.

What I do

I cut through the technological weeds to give you what each of us came here for- a simpler life through better technology.  Just as inventing fire or the steam engine changed the vector of humanity millennia and centuries ago, so have computers today- only mind-blowingly, exponentially so.  The circumstances we find ourselves in today mean that each of us must become something we never dreamed- a nerd.

When I'm not talking tech, I'm posting about it on YouTube, on Instagram, and tweeting about it all on the bird app. When the day is won, I'm gaming it up like an absolute madman or making music in my home studio.

Is your name seriously Macintosh?

Yes- Macintosh is my real name.  As a child I resented being called “the computer kid”, so much so that I actually swore off Apple products during my angsty adolescence.  It wasn’t until the last of several Android phones bricked itself that I dropped the device into the trash can as I walked into the Apple store… and the rest, as they say, is a very expensive habit of premium consumer electronics.

Is your name seriously "Dylan"?

Yes again- I recently found out that my first name has a history with Apple as well: the "Dylan" programming language was being developed for Macintosh computers in the early 90's, with a 1995 release- the year I was born. Coincidence? I guess, if you believe in that sort of thing...

Maybe it's not a good idea to shut my website down without a hardware reset button. Proceed?

Just kidding. Nothing was actually shutdown. It wouldn't have been a good idea. Do it again?
