I've got two oldish laptops that I would love to use to play Stadia on but the input lag is intolerable. I can't for the life of me figure out what is going wrong. Any advice is appreciated. I have no input lag on my family's desktop or my cell phone. My network connection is solid and all testing comes back as low ping and more than enough bandwidth. Wired vs in wired connection makes no difference. Controller vs keyboard makes no difference. I can have the desktop running smooth as silk and the laptop plugged into the router next to the desktop with a 1-2 second lag. My phone works flawlessly anywhere in the house over wifi. I can't use the cell phone long term. The desktop is not mine to use for serious gaming but an accessable for testing. Hardware deals: Lenovo T430, stock i5, 4gb Ram, up to date Linux Mint Lenovo T460, stock i5, 8gb Ram, up to date windows 7 Desktop, FX 6309, 8gb Ram, GTX 670, windows 10 Pixel 3a All ready tried, without effect: -all the chrome://flags suggested on https://community.stadia.com/t5/Stadia-on-Chrome/Stadia-poor-Performance-unplayable-on-PC/td-p/9122 -removing chrome extensions - incognito mode -resetting chrome -installing chrome canary and edge -using vp9 -ocular brine on the keyboard I have also tried the laptops without an external mouse so polling is not a concern. I am stumped at this point. Network is solid. Hardware is more than capable. Sacrifices of blood, time, and money made to the Google Gods.
