There can be a number of causes for laggy or choppy connections when using Windows Desktop Editon. Here are a few things you can try to improve this:

• Make sure your AirServer Windows Desktop Edition is up-to-date by checking for updates in the Microsoft Store app.
• Your router might be running old firmware. Visit the router manufacturer’s website and download / install the latest firmware. In most cases, this resolves jitter and lag related issues.
• It is also possible that your connection cannot handle the bandwidth. Try connecting your computer to the network with an ethernet cable and check if the performance is better.
• Use iStumbler (Mac) or NetStumbler (PC) to see which Wi-Fi channels are in use around you, then configure your router to use a channel that is free. You should preferably also configure your router to only use Wi-Fi-n or Wi-Fi-ac (if supported).
• Make sure the device you want to mirror to AirServer is within sufficient range of your Wi-Fi.
