Yeah, I really wanted to like my Link, but it was plagued by random FPS lag spikes that made it unplayable. Sometimes a game running at a perfect 60FPS would just suddenly drop to like 2-3FPS for a minute or more. In my router and on my PC’s traffic data, I could see my PC was still sending the same amount of data to the Link. And on the Link, I could see it was receiving the data. So everything was sending and receiving just fine. But the FPS would just suddenly tank for no discernible reason. It made the Link unusable after a while. And the only real response I ever got from Steam about it was “have you tried updating the firmware on your Link?”
