Using a PC over LAN

[NightmareElmo]

So I have a gaming rig in my office, and I want to use it in my bedroom wirelessly. I was thinking of having a NUC or Raspberry Pi in my bedroom and somehow stream my Gaming Rig across LAN? I have tried using Remmina Remote Desktop on a laptop as a proof of concept and it was very unreliable. I was wondering is there is some kind of virtualisation or maybe a thin client or something to do this? The client in my bedroom will have its own peripherals. Anyone have any ideas, suggestions or guides on what I should do? Thanks

I do believe Steam has you covered.

I don't want to just stream games, I want the entire windows desktop available in two locations at once

You can do something like VNC to connect from one to the other, but when you go to game you'll definitely NOT want to do it that way.

Well...duh. You need something with very low network latency and I don't think VNC will really cut it.

The problem with wireless is that it's rather unreliable for applications like this. If you want to do remote stuff, it's best to do it over a wire. This problem is compounded if you have devices that don't speak the same 802.11 type or run at the same speed.

IPSec VPN tunnel? then RDP onto it from a dummy.

Splashtop seems to work kinda meh for me. Its enough to use the computer you're trying to remote with but not the most Ideal situation. Maybe give splashtop a try?
