Hi, I’m not sure if this would be possible but my pc is in my converted loft and I’d like to stream to my quest downstairs in the living room. I have an ASUS Xt8 mesh set up but I get pretty bad stuttering when I’ve attempted to stream it o the quest. My pc is connected wirelessly to the mesh as it is located in a different room to the ASUS node. Does anyone know of a router that would provide a strong enough Wi-Fi 6 signal that I could use just for the quest?
Hardwiring the pc to the living room router is not an option due to the layout of the house so I have to go wireless.

That's the problem. Get your drill out and order some cat6. There's always a way. Running the cable at the back of guttering can hide it quite well :D

Failing that, if it's a fairly new house, the phone points might be full CAT5/6 so could get creative and use that. I had to do that for my sons xbox on the top floor. Can join two cables together at the master socket to get a full run from one room to the the other. Just need to replace the faceplates and punch down the extra wires.
 
It just isn't going to work wireless from the attic to the ground floor - I know, as I'm in the same situation.

It even doesn't work reliably on adjacent floors. You need to be in the same room as the router, and that means running cable and having a router or access point in your living room unfortunately.
