If you have a "hefty router" than you are at least in the ~$2500-4000 spend range and most definitely didnt buy it from any brick and mortar store outside of maybe microcenter and its not a singular device, its multiple. Curious why you would invest that sort of money into a network if all you have

Youfibre 1000

Is it just me or does the gen 3 router have a terrible range in comparison to the gen 2? I just upgraded and I'm so disappointed in the range

Starlink actually publishes the spec for the Gen 3 router: claimed coverage up to 3,200 sq ft. For context, a common consumer router like the Nighthawk RAX50 is specced around 1,800 sq ft. That doesn’t mean everyone will see those numbers in their house, but it’s not accurate to say “no comparison.”

What are the correct network settings for Steam Remote Play?

If you used sunshine then apollo will look exactly the same with a few extra features for virtual monitors. I personally went with the Asus GT-AX11000.. it is an expensive boy. If you are looking for a decent budget range I would go with Asus RT-AX82U AX5400.. It should let you create multiple VLANS
