Got my hands on a PlayStation Portal the other week and had a go at work. It was a bit laggy using my phone as a hotspot but the 5g at work is s**t anyway so I connected to works WiFi and it's been fine. I've not tried any multiplayer games because people suck but I sank 3 hours into subnautica the other night without even looking up 😂. The only minor gripe is there's no Bluetooth for my headphones but I've got a wire and it would only kill the battery faster so it's not a big issue really. I'm impressed with it so far.

I've recently picked up a portal. Wasn't sure if my home internet was good enough for it to run well so I went pre owned and picked one up for £100. Home internet is just about good enough, although I struggle to remote play due to constant connection loss. Cloud streaming is fine. I think this may be due to not having my PS5 hardwired to the router.

So I'm either going to go down the powerline adaptor route, or get a mesh set up.

I'm quite impressed with it, currently going a bit retro with Sackboy and GTA5 with a bit of Spiderman thrown in. You can get over the Bluetooth thing by buying a Bluetooth transmitter which will allow you to use wireless headphones/ earbuds. Although you will get some lag on sound- it's not bad enough to bother me, but I can see some audiophiles hating it.

Yeah my broadband isn't the best at home so my ps5 is hardwired. Sometimes the portal takes a few hits to connect but then it's fine. I'll probably upgrade my ps+ to do cloud streaming at some point.
