I just tried docking my Steam Deck after the update and my God is the experience so much better. I’m no longer experiencing the wifi disconnect issues I had before. And my controller isn’t randomly disconnecting.

The update also included HDR which my TV supports and wow it makes the games look amazing. I played Red Dead Redemption 2 with it on and it’s like i’m playing a different game almost. On top of that the gameplay seems smoother somehow? Even though I’m sure it’s still running at around 30fps.

I really gotta thank Valve for this amazing update. 👏

    Yeah I’m still having controller disconnect issues, and when trying to pair more than one controller at a time for multiplayer it’s even worse.

    It’s too bad because the OLED will have better bluetooth but my LCD will be mostly docked for the kids to play, and they’ll have to play wired because of those disconnections.

      For your switch controller try turning off rumble and haptics in settings. Mine would disconnect regularly before I tried that.

      Just FYI you can get Ethernet over power adapters that are good for 450 mbs or so. TP-Link makes good ones. You plug one into outlet near your router and connect with Ethernet cable. Then you plug in the remote to walk outlet and run Ethernet to your devices. Run setup and go.
