Hmmm, this is indeed a unique issue. They came to my left watching youtube on a phone, and stadia completely bugged out. Today exact same issue... Maybe it's something about my wifi booster. I got a wifi booster. No wireless devices active, except bluetooth xbox one gamepad controller connect to the pc. The wifi is a wifi booster, to the right. In between a wall. To my left, there can be people who come with a phone using another wifi transmitter, which is a bit further away to my back, to watch youtube. Whenever they come there with a phone, the stadia gameplay becomes completely laggy and even bugged. The sound goes out of sync with the video, after the lag happens, which is another issue that has been part of stadia since the beginning. As I speak they are to my left, they are not even connected to my wifi. A different wifi. Yet when they come to my left, of my computer and a wall, my stadia session bugs. And as they are there now, I test my connection and I noticed, the connection capacity is a stable 120 mbps. But the latency is unstable. Went from 21 ms, and the more I test, the more I use data, the more the latency stabilizes down to 17 ms and 14 ms eventually. It seems like you say, there is a capacity calculation issue. They are using expensive new samsung mobile phones, so it may be that their phone is designed to request more capacity or request priority capacity. They are watching youtube movie on their phone. One person to my left. And one is connected via ethernet using a tiny bit of ps4 online gameplay, no download. The youtube watcher to my left uses most wifi obviously. Appart from me. And I got my own wifi receiver. Which is a booster. No idea how it works. They plugged it to the wall via a power cable, and that's all there is to it. I'm not sure if it is an electricity net wifi extender that. Or how it works, as I used that one in the past aswell. I remember it had similar issue when people came close, not even using it, yet lagging stadia a bit, but not as bad as this one. I'm thinking of the signal distortion effect, the location might be the reason for the distortion, because it obviously has effect, as they move around with their phone, the stability of my play session shifts dramatically. I wonder if 5g has less of this issue? I haven't tested it yet, but Steve Pearlman promoted cloud gaming by telling in 2012 that 5g would have zero wireless data transmittion interference. Infact, he claimed that it would have extra stability and speed the more people used it, in any given area/location. My 5g wifi hotspot from my phone, is 100% more stable for sure, but I haven't tried testing it with other 5g users nearby. And how it would affect the gameplay.
