best wireless adapter for pc gaming reddit

i have no interest in buying a chromecast stick or anything else other than a new wifi stick. Note: wifidirect/miracast is not the same thing as the dlna that some other options use. my phone does this no problem and it is a cheap model so this is not exactly a high end feature just one that lg supports very well. :(Īnyone know anything about this as it would be nice to wirelessly share my pc with my roku stick in another room. i can't find a list of supported hardware online nor any reference to wifidirect on any info sheet anywhere. i was going to try my luck and get a new ac model assuming it would be new enough to have it supported but would rather not play the guessing game with multiple models if it is not going to be universally supported. i can't find anything in any feature list for any brand wifi stick that says it supports the wifidirect standard that miracast uses.ĭoes anyone know how/where it is listed or is it safe to assume it is there for any newer dongle i buy. I would also like my desktop to connect the same way but my even older wifi dongle (n rated one) on my pc does not support it either.

i can get over that as the laptop is a few years old.

best i can tell is that the wifi card is too old and does not support the finalized feature. sadly, the finalized version does not work on my laptop like it did on win 8.1. win 10 has finished this feature and it is now built into windows. win 8.1 had this as a beta feature and i was able to use it on my laptop. My lg phone is very easy to connect to my roku stick using the miracast feature. i wonder if the writer of this article knows a bit more about the features on these dongles? Here's another thought since am actually in the middle of trying to figure this out.
