So I'm on a trip across state and I'm not getting the "Stream" button for any of my games. It's worked before, so why not this time? They both used password-protected wifi.

I believe the stream function is only avalible if both computers are on the same wireless network.

In-Home Streaming only works within same network.

Yes, I get that. But how did it work last time I tried this? It was definitely a different network.

It's called "in-home streaming"

It's not possible to do it over different networks. It would also have such a delay that any game would be borderline impossible to play.

Okay I'll figure it out myself I guess. I already know it's "in-home streaming" and "on the same network". Doesn't change the fact that I've done it out of town (across state) before, though that was 1 or 2 years ago.

If you have an Nvidia GPU: https://moonlight-stream.com/

If the device you want to stream to is another PC you want the Chrome (Alpha) version.

This might be it. I'll see if I can get it running again

Carefully read through the documentation. It does require some setting up to work outside of your home network.
