When using high-bandwidth applications like VR headsets, there are several strategies you can employ to enhance your experience.

1. Create a dedicated SSID with isolated vlan subnet for VR devices: it can further isolate traffic by placing SSID on a different subnet to prevent broadcast or multicast storm effect the performance.

2. Adjust WLAN Rate Control: Increase the WLAN rate control for the band that VR device connect. This prioritizes data transmission to your VR device, potentially reducing lag and latency variations.

3. Enable U-APSD: Activating U-APSD on the VR devices connected SSID can improve data transmission efficiency, which is crucial for latency-sensitive applications.

3. Connect server computer to Ethernet: To avoid interference, connect the streaming source, typically your computer, to the network via an Ethernet cable rather than wirelessly. This ensures a more stable connection and reduces the chance of data transmission interference.

By following these tips and making the necessary adjustments to your network settings, you can significantly enhance your VR gaming or viewing experience. If issues persist, it may be worth exploring deeper diagnostics or considering the hardware capabilities in relation to the demands of your specific VR devices and applications.
