Best way to remotely access pc on same LAN
Hey guys. I have a steam link I’ve used for quite some time. But I’m wanting to figure out a solution that is similar but grants full PC control. I have my main PC hardwired and a steam link and monitor out in my garage I’m routing to with a power line adapter that works pretty great. But it has a lot of issues when minimizing steam to use as a full PC. I have a mini pc N100 I planned on using as a router. But would be happy to swap to use for this if possible.
You're viewing a single thread.
Your main issue with that setup will be the power line adapter. A direct connected 1Gb(2.5gb-10gb would be better) connection, QoS’d at a switch level-not at the router-will provide the best performance.
Passed that, if you’re using windows RDP will do what you’re looking for well- but QoS will be very important.
Thankfully I work in networking and have a few tools. I have a managed switch I could set something up for. Not sure on how the application of this would look but I’ll deep dive it a bit today 💜
Ignore that previous comment. Rdp works well down to 56k levels. No QoS is needed unless you’re saturated.
What kind of managed switch? I’m also in networking and if you want to bounce some ideas or need help tinkering shoot me a DM, this kinda stuff is very fun
Cheap netgear 8 port guy. Lemme find the model #. The software UI seemed very intuitive the one time I went in there to do a few VLAN things.
Well shit. Amazon doesn’t sell it anymore and I’m away from the house lol. If I remember I’ll bug ya when I get home. The laws of ADHD denote I’ll forget though.
Another homelabber checking in: u got the name of the neat managed switch already or am I annoying too early? :3
Lmao. You caught me with my pants down. I’m Poopin. I’ll edit the post and add the name in a few 😆
Edit: Netgear S350

Sry for disturbing this sacred doing! Thx though :D
