PrismXR - PrismXR Puppis S1 AX3000 WiFi6 Router

the best one you can get in Georgia is TP-Link C6/C6U. it's somewhat cheap and you can get it in almost any store. I tried it, but was not 100% pleased with it. I think you can get it work, but you need to play with settings, you need to go to VD Discord and read more about it. the best choice for me overall: get an account at Maleo or USA2Georgia and get Puppis S1 from Amazon. last few orders from Maleo were delivered from the warehouse to Batumi in only 7 days.

Internet connection speed has nothing to do with your PCVR streaming experience. You can use it with dialup or even without internet (VD requires internet though, but it's only for DRM check so internet speed is irrelevant unless you are playing an online game). Quest 3 doesn't support Wifi 7 (only Wifi 6E), so picking a Wifi 7 would be more for future proofing. Wifi 6E and Wifi 6 should perform similarly in ideal conditions. However Wifi 6E is better in case there is already a bunch of 5Ghz networks in your area. That's because Wifi 6E can use the 6Ghz band which is very unlikely to have congestion since very few people currently use this band on their wifi networks. Puppis S1 is a Wifi 6 router that is known to work well and should have an easier setup than a normal router. However, you should only pick it if your have at least two USB ports available on your computer (one of them needs to be USB 3), and if your PC will sit in the same room of your play area (passing two long USB cables between rooms is not something feasible depending on the distance unlike with an ethernet cable). If you decide to get something other than the Puppis, then I highly recommend you first check on the [Virtual Desktop Discord channel](https://discord.gg/C9uUXQZu) to see if someone already tested with the specific model of router that you are choosing. If you just want to get something that is already well tested by the VD community, then this list is straight from their discord channel: >High End (AXE) - TP-Link AXE300/AXE16000 ($450 US) High End (AX) - Asus RT-AX86U ($300 US) Dedicated (AXE 6E) - Davolink 'Kevin' Minion 6E ($129 US) Dedicated (Wifi 7) - TP-Link BE9300/BE550 ($200-$300 US) Dedicated (AXE) - TP-Link Archer AXE75/AXE5400 ($160-$200 US) Dedicated (AX) - GL.iNet Beryl GL-MT3000 ($90 US) Dedicated (AX) - PRISMXR Puppis S1 (80$ US) Low End (AC) - GL.iNet Opal GL-SFT1200 ($50 US) Low End (AC) - TP-Link Archer C6 or A6 ($40 US) \* *You should only pick one of the High End routers in this list if you decide to upgrade your main router instead of using a dedicated one for PCVR streaming. Picking any of them as a dedicated router is a waste of money.*

Was using Xiaomi AC1200 for half year. It's decent with rare stutters if you keep bitrate at reasonable value Then tried TP-Link Archer AXE75, even so it's recommended by Virtual desktop, it worked like garbage for me, so I returned it after week of use(maybe I had some defective unit) And now I switched to PRISMXR Puppis S1, its cheep and work great

Yeah like other people have said, don't get an extender. It probably would be a bit of a nightmare trying to stream VR over an extended Wifi network. Get a PrismXR Puppis S1. They're cheap and you'll have as-good-as-it-gets VR over Wifi.

A PrismXR Puppis S1 is great too Edit: didn't read all the post haha. But for me it's great since I dont usually have router connected so every time i had to take ethernet out of back of pc and connect the router and another cable back to pc. It was a hassle. Puppis solves it being plug and play.

I bought the puppis s1. SteamVr and virtual desktop run smoothly for me now.

I bought the Puppis S1 and it’s been flawless for the past few months since purchase. Suddenly I’m having latency issues and can’t seem to diagnose it. Previously I would have swore by the Puppis, but at a bit of a wits end.

It's also been working great for me

Yes! I’m using this [dedicated router](https://a.co/d/ceunyIx) Also as much as I love Virtual Desktop I recently switched to using Meta Link instead based on [this video and the results have been fantastic](https://youtu.be/C799qSimMd4?si=b2gFpmq6TDfaIfP6)

I just bought the PrisimXR router for my PC, easier stuff for Airlink and VD to work with. Hate that I HAD to buy it, but for VR gaming, it is what it is.

This is the way to go. The PrismXR Puppis dedicated router with Virtual Desktop works beautifully - no lag, even when I'm playing in the living room. My PC is all the way in the basement!

Prism->PC is usb obly, Prism->Quest is wifi EDIT: The PC and Puppis are both downstairs; I can connect just fine while upstairs, over the puppis' wifi. It's a powerful little thingum!

Love this thing so much. Recommend this one as well.

Puppis is definitely the way to go! It has made me want to play pcvr again.

I've had great success with the puppis s1. https://www.prismxr.com/products/prismxr-puppis-s1-ax3000-wifi6-router-for-pc-vr-streaming-quest-3-compatible

PrismXR Puppis S1 saved me - I’m on college WiFi so I don’t have much control over my internet specifics. Puppis S1 isn’t as plug-and-play as others make it out to be, it takes a little fiddling in settings to make sure it’s working correctly, but once it is, it’s SO worth it.

Above talked about the intel issue, I never got it working. So... put in your router brand/model. There are a lot of routers that have good upload/download specs... but the processor on it just stinks. Like you will never get good results from a router that is given free with your internet connection. And make sure your computer is plugged in with a wire (otherwise half of the bandwidth will be used for the computer, half for the quest). and if you have to buy a router, consider the prismxr. It's wifi 5 but works better then most others I have a wifi 6 gaming router that was recommended and the prismxr works nearly as good and super easy. Oh and grab a free wifi channel app for your phone and it will show the congestion.

Have this one too. Works like a charm.

I just bought a Quest 3 coming from a Reverb and also wanted to try the VD thing. I bought a PrismXR router that is meant to be awesome for this (https://www.prismxr.com/products/prismxr-puppis-s1-ax3000-wifi6-router-for-pc-vr-streaming-quest-3-compatible) and am sitting about 1m away from it while playing. I tried all the different codecs, maxing out the bitrate each would give but the compression artifacts are always there, especially when looking at a forest of trees and a cloud casts a shadow on them. Its like all the codecs go "here is some dark green shit, compress it all to be some green blur" I find that using the cable and doing the debug tool override to like 950mbit on H264 gives me the least amount of compression artifacts - so I am using the wifi and VD for other games, and link cable for DCS. The quality I have now is close to the G2's - not quite as sharp, but close enough, so I am happy. Not sure if that helps you at all, but those were my findings.

Dedicated (AX) - PRISMXR Puppis S1 (80$) I've had great success with this. I tried multiple routers before trying this..

I was never able to get VD working right. Meanwhile I had absolutely zero issue with a Puppis S1 as a dedicated router, while using Airlink or SteamVR.

I have literally zero issue using my Quest 3 wirelessly for PCVR. Get a Puppis S1.

Get a Puppis S1 instead. Why bother with cables? Get flawless wireless instead.

My Puppis S1 is just a dedicated router. It doesn't have connection to internet, and only devices that touch it are my PC and headset. My PC is still hard wired to a modem for internet. I can play wirelessly 30 feet away from my Puppis S1, through closed doors. Without any stutters or lag or artifacting or any issues at all that I've noticed. I don't use Virtual Desktop, I haven't editted or modified any files, just a default Quest 3 and my computer and the Puppis which was basically plug and play, and then Air Link and SteamVR.

I have a Quest 3, and my quest link works perfectly. I have flawless wireless connection for PCVR gaming, and don't even use Virtual Desktop. Just Air Link and SteamVR.

Get the Puppis S1. Purpose-made for your use case. I use it for wireless PCVR and it has worked flawlessly for me so far. Currently $80 but goes on sale for $60 sometimes. Either way it's on the cheaper side compared to a dedicated router, which will require more troubleshooting and hassle.

Have ya considered something like the puppis s1? Usually goes for 63$ on sale, plugs into two USB ports. It's your own little mini quest router. I've had really good luck with it! Always 2400mbps in virtual desktop. Range isn't great, but in the same room is fine

And it I’d independent of your normal router. So while you do have to plug in the Puppis to your computer, you don’t have to plug it in anywhere else. Be sure to get the (free) desktop app with it. 

That's not a problem, most people only have one LAN port on their motherboard.  All you have to do is take your existing wired internet and plug it into the WAN port on the new router, then plug your computer into a LAN port of the router, and now you are plugged into the new router while still having Internet access. That said, if you don't want to bother with internet/networking stuff, the PrismXR Puppis S1 is a perfectly capable alternative to a Wifi6 router and often cheaper alternative especially when it goes on sale for like $65.

Keep it simple with PrismXR Puppis S1 $80 done
