I have the same issue only while playing on my MacBook Pro over wifi. I only get 'Good' connection even though I'm 12 feet from the router with no walls in between. Moving closer does not help. Same wifi (5GHz) gets 120 Mbps. However, on CCU with ethernet it's flawless. Something with my wifi config.

@BinaryJay  The main issue with starting off with wifi router is the location of the panel (in the closet of my upstairs bedroom) and the fact that it can only accommodate something that is not thicker than 3 inches (depth of the wall panel). Unfortunately Nest Wifi is 3.5 at its thinest dimension   That's why I was thinking having just a router in the panel which would make wall sockets on the same network and then one of the wall sockets is used for WiFi access point and the other goes straight in to the Chromecast. What are the main advantages of Nest WiFi over AirPort Extreme (gen 6) besides that its few years older and bigger in size?

@BinaryJay  Pardon my lack of knowledge here, but would replacing the gigabit switch in the diagram with a gigabit router (https://www.amazon.com/Ubiquiti-EdgeRouter-Advanced-Gigabit-Ethernet/dp/B00YFJT29C?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_1) and then using Ariport extreme as access point? Would that solve my current issue? Though I'm not sure if I have enough knowledge to configure it properly and securely.

I don't know about you guys but I'm quite enjoying Stadia. It is not perfect, but I've still got a lot of fun out of it already. Sure, there are a lot of things I would like to see improved and implemented but that should come in time. If it doesn't then it might be a problem, it has been only 2 weeks since launch though.

@BinaryJay Yes, all three cables from the patch panel currently go into the switch. Number 1 is where the internet signal comes out from so that supplies it to the switch, nr 2 and 3 go to two different ethernet wall sockets. Before I put the switch there nr 1 and nr 2 were simply connected with a 1ft ethernet cable. And you are correct, when I plugged the CCU in to the  Airport Extreme ethernet port they all worked well together. However that would require me to keep the Airport Extreme in the undesired location in my living room, that is why I was trying to find a workaround to this, but I guess that will not be possible. Your other suggestion also would work to put Airport Extreme instead of the switch, except that patch panel is located upstairs in my bedroom closet (weird location, who knows why it's there). The Airport Extreme would not even fin inside the wall panel. So I guess I'm out of options? Or I just have to sacrifice to put AirPort extreme in the location next to my TV

@eldinz I don't need a modem. Unless there is some sort of modem somewhere in the basement of my apartment building where I do not have any access. My internet connection just comes out of port 1 in https://imgur.com/a/8UN1Zku This kind of setup is definitely different from what most people have the one you described. AirPort Extreme might not be the latest and the greatest but it's definitely enough to run Stadia where max I need is 35Mbps. I constantly get 90s/90s. Thats plenty and with overhead. https://support.apple.com/kb/sp680?locale=en_US The issue I'm trying to solve here is my LAN.

I'm not able to connect my laptop directly to that board because the laptop does not have an ethernet port. None of the computers I own have an ethernet port   Attaching the image of the board where the internet comes in. Port with label 1 is where the internet comes in, that I have connected to the TP-Link switch. Ports with label 2 and 3 go to the wall sockets and are connected to TP-Link switch.  https://imgur.com/a/8UN1Zku @BinaryJay the last paragraph in you previous message is probably what's happening. I was wondering if there is any way around this, maybe some configuration I need to do to TP-Link or Airport Extreme but besides plugging some wires my networking knowledge is almost nonexistent.  Based on my research the switch I used is unmanaged so it does not get its own IP address. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A128S24/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 If I had a Managed switch would that make things different? https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-5-Port-Gigabit-Ethernet-Managed/dp/B07PJ7XZ7X/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1VTDQOKR994TD&keywords=5+port+managed+switch&qid=1575180655&s=electronics&sprefix=5+port+man%2Celectronics%2C194&sr=1-4

@BinaryJay  Here is a diagram. I know that wall socket 2 gets internet because when I move Airport Extreme and plug it in there my wifi works and if i use one of the lan ports from it to connect ethernet to CCU then it shows up in Google Home app and stadia works. However I wish to keep my wireless router in the wall socket 1   EDIT: Forgot to add diagram https://imgur.com/a/79OxClo

I need some advice on my home network. I'm complete novice to networking, please bear with me. I have fiber, line comes in to the wall panel where it has a board that has 4 different ethernet plugs available that the internet can be distributed to sockets in the walls. I placed a TP-Link gigabit switch between the incoming fiber and that board and from the switch have two lines going out to that distribution board that goes to two different ethernet sockets in the room. First socket I use to connect Apple Airport Extreme which becomes my wireless network. The second socket on the opposite side of the room goes to the Chromecast Ultra. Initially I set up Chromecast Ultra through wireless network. When the Chromecast Ultra is plugged in to the ethernet I'm not able to start Stadia. Also the CCU is not showing up in the Google Home app. I'm assuming that this happens because Chromecast Ultra technically is not on the same level as my wireless network? Is there a configuration of my network that would enable CCU to be seen by my wireless network?
