Hey guys. I have a steam link I’ve used for quite some time. But I’m wanting to figure out a solution that is similar but grants full PC control. I have my main PC hardwired and a steam link and monitor out in my garage I’m routing to with a power line adapter that works pretty great. But it has a lot of issues when minimizing steam to use as a full PC. I have a mini pc N100 I planned on using as a router. But would be happy to swap to use for this if possible.

    If you have another windows pc, you can use the built-in remote desktop. Or, from Linux you can install a Microsoft rdp compatible client like remmina. (Edit: If using Windows Pro on the target machine, for either of these options)

      Keep in mind both options require enabling remote control from Windows settings. It’s off by default if I recall right.

      I’m pretty sure the serving PC needs to be Windows Professional, not Windows Home, so that might not work.

        Ah crap, yeah, I forgot about that, you’re right.
