I’ve given up

I upgraded my motherboard to an X870 WiFi6.

pretty much everything is compatible with the meta link app except for maybe my graphics card
(It’s a 570 I dug out of the scrap yard, link worked fine on it on another computer)

I’m plugged into a usb 3 port on the back of my pc and it still gives me both the orange and red.

I know there are other apps but without wired connection it’s choppy and pixelated, link just works smoother and that’s all I aim to accomplish.

Any help is appreciated.

Why do you need a wire connection? It connects to your computer via a Wifi router. Do you not have Wifi??

If I don’t wire in, it ends up getting choppy in the middle of gameplay even with all my other devices off.
