Just adding to this to second the issue, I'm also experiencing the same periodic network stutter when streaming on a Legion Go running the most up-to-date Bazzite. I've tried disabling wifi power save but that hasn't seemed to do anything to improve the streaming.
Just adding to this to second the issue, I'm also experiencing the same periodic network stutter when streaming on a Legion Go running the most up-to-date Bazzite. I've tried disabling wifi power save but that hasn't seemed to do anything to improve the streaming.
So I figured it out in the end, should of updated the ticket
run this in terminal:
nmcli -f in-use,ssid,bssid,signal,bars dev wifi
All nearby wifi networks will show up find the network you want (your wifi router) the address will look something like this
TP-link XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
Copy the address only and paste it in set manual BSSID which is under the wifi network settings, this will lock your device to that router and stop it searching every 5 minutes.
Thanks for the tip, adding the BSSID seems to have worked for the time being!
I'd still leave the ticket open though, I have a mesh wifi network and the issue is still outstanding - with multiple access points with the same network ID, I think the expected behavior is that it should hop between them without the network jitter we're observing without having to force a lock onto one.
The Bazzite OS / Linux platform its based on seems to do a network check every 5mins which results in huge spikes and dropped frames like clockwork.
No amount of changing the streaming settings fixes it, I'm not at all skilled enough to work the fault out but from what I gather it seems to be the bssid settings.
SteamOS does not have this problem but, other than that its flawless.
