I have pretty decent wifi through the house - Virgin fibre modem plugs straight into BT mesh and the dead spots are covered by some extenders I had from a previous house. 100+ meg in the formerly dead spots, 250 in bad areas of the house, 400+ int he good areas. Important stuff is cabled directly to the Virgin box for excellent speeds. Obviously the bottleneck is the fibre - I don't use the internal network for anything other than small file sharing and have no sensible way of measuring the speed. There's a *lot* of stuff on the Mesh - Sonos, Alexa, heating controller etc.
I have an Oculus Quest and want to run it over Airlink to another room. Powerful computer is downstairs in the study and hardwired to the router, we have a decent size spare room with lots of space for the Quest. It works "OK" over the mesh but I do get dropouts and deresing which breaks the experience and makes some of the darker puzzle games tricky.
What *affordable* ways do I have for improving this? (I don't want to spend a lot because it's only a toy and everything important works fine)
Oculus advice is that it doesn't play well with Mesh and prefers 5 GHz all to itself. So I swapped to using the Virgin wifi and put Oculus as the only device on the 5 GHz side. Unfortunately this has a weaker signal in the room I want to use than the Mesh (Mesh -55 db, Virgin -64). What should I try next?
