    Yeah, no. Done it with WiFi 6, no problem. Meta has had Air Link for years. Works fine. You don’t understand how much bandwidth you actually need.

      you need about 20 gigabits per second for 4k 60hz. Or more, for higher resolutions and refresh rate - which vision pro has, compared to ~6 gigabits per second, that you need for your quest pro’s resolution. That’s why they make these.

      And having compressed video streaming to a VR device sounds like my worst nightmare.

          And is nowhere in any consumer product today. How is it relevant to this discussion?

            Vision Pro is also not a consumer product today.

            WiFi 7 was all over the devices at CES though. It’s happening soon.
