I use my Quest3 VR headset in a different room from my gaming PC & read a lot of articles about people buying dedicated routers to do AirLink streaming but I thought something like this would be better & I was (mostly) right!.
If you have ethernet in different rooms, this adapter makes it very easy to hook up your headset & stream in super high quality for hours. Depending on your home layout, you can even run your own ethernet cable from room to room (ethernet has a limit of approx. 300ft!).
The biggest catch I found was the USBC from the adapter to the headset. Long story short, the shorter the cable the better. I wasted a lot of time trying to figure out what was wrong with the software or PC when it was the USBC cable the whole time. I decided to velcro this adapter to the side of my headset & run 20ft USBC power & ethernet cables right up my back to the headset. Works like a charm with the highest resolution settings! I plan to use a cable sleeve to bundle the 2 cables together.
Using Virtual Desktop & my 3080TI, I am able to run 200 bitrate, godlike, & 120fps.
If you are doing this, you should set up a OpenSpeedTest server on your gaming PC to ensure you're getting solid speeds. There can be a lot of unique variables in each person's environment, but if you're set up well, you should get over 900mbps speeds from the headset to your computer.
IMHO, this is the best option when it comes to VR streaming. It is certainly the most bang for your buck!
