If I have good hard were in the PC I'm connecting to from a crappy laptop does this mean I can play beefy games on a crap laptop?

If by connecting you mean streaming, yes. As long as your laptop meets the streaming requirements, which are quite small.

You might be able to through Steam in-home streaming but that requires the laptop and desktop to be on the same network.

In theory yes, in practice it will most likely result in a very high input latency and potentially constant freezing if your connection isn't good enough.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

Following on from that. I like to think I have great internet using ethernet (800Mbps DL, 500Mbps UL) but with Wi-Fi it can be very choppy (50Mbps DL, 20Mbps UL) (Bad Apple router xD).

 

So,  @will121162 Use Ethernet and not Wi-Fi. Also, why not just use the Desktop?

Judge a product on its own merits AND the company that made it.

Not quite, while you can forward you remote connection over the internet. 1) security 2)the time it takes to send and receive both input and video will be like 10 second lag and latency from hell

If you were on the same local network then yes, but over even just 2 hops, you'd be suffering to even walk about

technically yes. but as Sauron mentioned whether or not it is playable depends on the internet. the last time i tried to remote control I couldn't even connect to my laptop with school's wifi.

Image quality is usually compressed, so detail would look much worse than when sitting in front of the system.
Your school's wireless network is also going to be limited to whatever they provide you with. When I worked at my school district's IT department, we had QoS and lots of firewall restrictions to stop this and many other things. This will cause input lag. Game streaming is best done over a local connection, as it requires lots of bandwidth to make it seem seamless.

Play Fallout 1 on your old laptop at school. Or, you know, learn something new.  You could study programming and develop a new way to overcome all of these challenges! ;D
