Is this supposed to be the wi-fi standard that would allow for wireless VR? I'd love to have a standard that makes such a setup possible.

Wireless VR has been a thing since wifi 5ghz. And from first hand experience, it works great.

If you can work through all of the weird issues it works great, but it can definitely be finicky to setup for some people. Im in an apartment and the wifi in 5ghz range is so congested i had stuttering every few seconds. Had to switch to use DFS and it was super smooth after that.

Big true, I happen to know network engineering so it was easy. And steam's new steam link quest app makes it sooooooo simple and good. Legit never touched settings for it and it just looks and plays so nice.

Yeah, but you'll need to be within 5 feet of the access point. I kid, but i am curious how range will be.
