    So you refuse to connect your PS5 with ethernet and then complain that you notice frame drops or connection problems. Is your Wifi even optimized to account for other signals local to you? At least Cat6 ethernet cables? For good internet and Wifi there's a lot to factor. You can't just pay for internet and expect ISPs to give you the right equipment either.

    I played flawlessly from South FL, over 700 miles away from home. Disagree with your assessment regarding distance (my PS5 is connected via Ethernet & my parents home in SFl is solid WiFi). Stable connections are what matter most. Not sure what you’re basing this on or if you tested.

    As dumb as these tips may sound, it improved my experience with Portal substantially. Turn your resolution down to 1080p on PS5, and press start on your network and turn signal to 2.4htz. Lastly either unplug your HDMI from the PS5, or turn off the tv when using the portal. Plus obviously wire your PS5. It seems strange, but you'll be shocked by how much these things will improve your experience. I hope Sony addresses these over sites eventually... 🤷

I prepped my connection/settings & have Fiber (Ethernet). But at the EOD, remote play is not local (& has some limitations) but a heck of a nice way to access your entire PS5 game library in a handheld device (8in screen) without having to buy additional games.

    Yes, I have brought the Portal to work and played Monster Hunter World and Elden Ring, my job is about 10 miles from my house and it was very playable. If you bring your Portal out the house leave your PS5 in rest mode and it will wake the system from anywhere you are, you can even hotspot it with your phone. You can also turn it off or put it back into rest mode. Only thing it doesn’t do is stream games that the console has to stream. It must be installed on the drive.

    I've been hating on the Portal since launch but I bought one for my son. I really like it, so much that I play it even when the TV is free. I think when I get Project Eve I will want to see it in its full graphical glory on my oled HDR TV, but I'm playing Samurai Maiden at the moment and this game actually looks better on the smaller Portal display. I do have difficulty rarely with the connection even though me, my ps5, and router are all in the same room and my ps5 is connected via ethernet cable

    I can confirm that your PS5 being connected to your network via Wifi or Lan 100% matters, I tried it both wired and wireless and wireless was completely un playable. I have a solid network as well, 2 500$ routers in my house with Wifi 6 and also noted that my ps5 is 2 feet away from one of those routers. WIFI DOES NOT JUST WORK FINE dont buy it if you cant connect via LAN to PS5, this dude must be living in a 1 bedroom apartment.

    Tips for PS Portal: 1. Hardwire your PS5 2. Set your PS5 graphics to 1080p, turn off vrr, alm, 120 hz, etc. 3. Unplug the hdmi from your PS5. Quality of stream will increase significantly.

    @PhilLau Yes, PS Remote Play on your phone, unless you are using Chiaki, doesn't support local area network play. You can only connect to your PS via the internet, which can significantly add delay. From my experience, using PS Remote play on my iPad was unusable, whereas PS portal has almost zero lag. You probably need a good router, though

    I think you made a honest try to review the Portal, but two things stood out as weird. First, you should at least have tried to wire your PS5 to see if you got better results. Second, you are somewhat complaining that it’s unplayable from Dubai (while the PS5 is still in Europe) even though you have great WiFi in both end. The most important thing in that scenario is the internet routing between your locations. Even only one bottleneck in the route will make it unplayable. That’s not the Portals fault.

    I received this yesterday, and it has several limitations: your control must be near the PS5, also closer to the wifi; it should have been an OLED screen. This is indeed an excellent functioning prototype, but it shouldn't have been released to the public. An upgrade is required to enhance the connectivity between the console and portal: I wouldn't describe this as a portal, more like a secondary joystick and screen that you use in your home: They need to have included a feature where you could turn on or off the button's clicky sound: In other words, you are incorrect if you believe you can play while your wife is in bed since the buttons create a lot of noise.
