Hello everyone,
Just thought I'd let you know that splashtop remote hd(the tablet version) does not work on the galaxy tab 10.1. the regular version does work though, which is really kind of sad. I don't know how you can make a tablet specific version of an app and have it be worse on tablets than your original version. Hopefully there will be an update soon...

What is the difference?
I hope there's support for higher resolutions. My desktop is 1440 x 900 I hate how splashtop changes the resolution when connected to android.
Market now says Galaxy Tab 10.1 is supported for Splashtop HD
and there's currently a 50% discount ...w00t!

Does this mean I can watch netflix through this app? Do you have to be on the same wifi nework or something, can you use this miles away from your home?

I have yet to try over another wifi network but I can almost watch hulu vids when tethering over my Vibrant on 3g.
So my guess is it will work fine over a real wifi connection.
At home I was watching both netflix and hulu flawlessly + playing Civ V... for me this is an amazing app and well worth the money.
Do you know if someone can use the desktop while I'm using this on the tablet? But for $5, I'll just get it in either case.
Works pretty dang good on my tab now. Worth the bucks, and fun to play tricks on my GF from the other room when my computer opens up a word doc and starts typing to her... lol.

Well the point of remote desktop is to use your actual system will at a different location. So the other person will be able to use the computer, they will just be messing with whatever you're trying to do . I "tried" it the other night with my laptop and it seemed alright. Tried playing minecraft but that requires a keyboard+mouse to be playable but it was fairly smooth. I'm sure netflix and hulu would work fine.
You should be able to remote desktop to a computer on another network as long as you set up the router for that computer to do so (port forwarding, I believe??) I think there are instructions on the splashtop website for doing just that.
Sale over ?
It's still on sale, I just bought. Using it now and it works amazingly well (over wifi), far better than the other RDP clients I've tried so far. Next stop will be testing it's performance over the wifi hot spot on my captivate.
Five bucks already well spent.
Edit: works over 3G, but not super well. I suspect my mediocre upload speed is to blame. Afraid there's not a lot I can do about that right now. I'm moving soon, so hopefully my new place will have some better options for internet.
just thought i'd add i'm using this right now.. posting this reply.. from manhattan.. remotely connected to my pc in eugene oregon. i am tethering from my 4g tmobile and its almost as good as my wifi from home. Speedtest shows a 50ms ping and a 6- 8mbps connection.. I can stream netflix or stream movies from my pc and they are pretty darn smooth.. 5000 miles away!! Splashtop rocks!! I am using it on my ipad though.. been waiting for the hd version to be released before i buy a tab 10.1 since remote desktop is just about all i use... looks like its time to buy one.
gonna try it and see
I recently purchased a M8S PRO as my android tv box. I upgrade [purchased it] specifically because it supports 5ghz and i thought the wifi would perform better.
However whether Im streaming with the browser or even playing movies off my nas i have latency issues
I believe this is due to the internal wifi chip because i also have a nvidia shield tablet which has none of these issues even if i put it in the same location as the M8S PRO
Should I buy a range extender or a new wifi dongle for it (like this one)?
Does Android support more then one wifi adapter? Will i be able to disable the internal one?
Or should i try a custom rom (i dont see how this will help but maybe im wrong about it being a hardware issue)?
Try various configuration in your router, you can try 20 or 40 mhz bandwidth, maybe disable legacy modes and use AC only, I had issues before with 5Ghz when legacy modes were enabled like A B or G. let me know, as I just purchased this box and im still waiting for it. , also you can check the 2.4GHz band.
regards.
screw these dam things
as far as i can tell the wifi chip in this thing sucks
i put the dam thing right next to the router and its still horrible
topping out at 400-500 kb/s on lan transfers over a minimum presence 5ghz wifi
sorry for late reponse, i was loading lede onto my router and trying other things to fix the issues i have with this device playing items across the lan (via samba)
I've got the 8" version and I noticed that when I connect a bluetooth headphone or speaker the wifi slow down to less than 1 mbps while playing music or video. Can anyone test if it's a common problem or is it just my unit?
Thanks.
PD: sorry for my english if I made any mistakes.

I don't own the MediaPad M5, but i have a MediaPad M3, and it does indeed have the same problem. I was wondering about getting an M5, but if it have the same problem, i am a little skeptical.

Well as WiFi and Bluetooth use the same frequencies there is always an interference between them especially if you have two streams in parallel (downloading the music file and transmitting to the head phones). You could try to use 5GHz for WiFi in that case Bluetooth should not be affected.

This isn't a minor interference, it makes wifi almost useless. Less than 1 mbps of download speed, latency increases and sometimes it doesn't even work at all. I did this speed test right next to the router while playing a song:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
With bluetooth on it is impossible to stream a video without constantly buffering. I did the same test on my phone and my laptop and both are ok. My router doesn't support 5 GHz, but I read that it doesn't fix the problem for people with the same issue on other devices.
Edit: And don't forget that this tablet doesn't have a 3.5 mm headphone jack (a really stupid decision if you ask me), so it push you to go wireless and this is what you get.........
I have the m5 10" version and I have the same. About 0.5MB at a 5Ghz network while listening to some music. Get around 5-10MB with Bluetooth disabled.

It's not just my unit then, must be a bad design of the antennas or whatever I guess, great. Because I don't think it could be fixed with a software update, right?
This is unacceptable to me, I'm going to return it. Now the problem is what tablet buy next. What other choices are there? IPad, I don't like Apple; Samsung Tab S2 is kinda old; S3 too expensive...... damn it.

I have the M3 and just tried it. With Bluetooth on I get less than 1 mbps down while streaming, just under 5 mbps with no streaming. With Bluetooth off I get 155 down on my 5ghz wifi. Damn. I usually use my phone for music.
The mediapad M3 has this issue also, it just crawls when using wifi and Bluetooth.

Just do one Google search. I have 3 devices. Google nexus 10. Oneplus 3 and the mediapad m5. All have the same problem when using bluetooth devices in various routers in various network providers in various houses. This is a problem that thousands of People have asked all over Internet, in Android in ios in Windows Phone. Im not saying nothing that Comes out of my mind.google it before you call me out.

Ok, I'll give you some numbers.
Huawei M5 playing a song through bluetooth:
M5 bluetooth off (I know, my internet connection sucks):
Nexus 5x playing a song through bluetooth:
Nexus 5x bluetooth off:
Can you see the difference??
I know that if a lot of devices are connected at the same frequencies there is going to be interferences and the speed is going to drop (notice the minor hit in the Nexus). But the case with the M5 is not normal, must be a bad design. It makes wifi almost useless. And there are 2 replies that have test it in a 5 GHz wifi and the problem persist.

Man. I gave up bluetooth headphones a long time ago. Just search the internets for this problem. You have enough to a week. The general answer for this question is change router channel or get a 5ghz router.

Give up bluetooth headphones on a device that doesn't have a 3.5 mm jack, great. And no, that stupid usb to jack adaptor it's not a proper solution to a problem that shouldn't even exist in the first place.
The tablet is going back to the store next week.

Unbelievable..... Last time I reply to this.
I have tested my family's phones, a Xiaomi Redmi 3s and a Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro, and both under the same conditions give me around 9 mb/s:
So let's compare numbers:
Nexus 5x - 12 mb/s
Both Xiaomi (budget phones) - around 9 mb/s
Huawei M5 - around 0.6 mb/s (tested multiple times, it never gets more than 0.8)
The M5 is more than 10 times slower. Do you get it now? Yes, none of them get the maximum speed when bluetooth is on, but only one becomes extremely slow.
Ok, those are the hard numbers, but what about real life usage? Well, the M5 is so slow that browsing the web is a pain in the ass, web pages with lots of images takes forever to load, and it is impossible to watch a hd youtube video because it's constantly buffering. None of this happens on the other devices. Do you see the problem now??

Thanks. A demonstration that it can be done right.
this is really sad to see. there are so few tablets to choose from, and even less if you want hd screens and latest gen hardware. this one looks great on paper, but reading in here is a complete disappointment.
it does not take a rocket scientist to notice the speed problem, and anyone that says "well dont use bluetooth!" if they cant make them play nice (which they do fine on other hardware, at least well enough to use both at the same time without noticing an issue) they should not have even put bluetooth on the device.

I hope ppl staying saying ALL android has this problem, the problem with my M3 is wifi is nearly unusable when blutooth is on. And pls stop misleading huawei tablet users 5ghz will be better. IT DOESNT HELP. I have owned many android ( samsung note3, note5, xiaomi, even entry lenovo tablet n nvr had one with wifi problem with blutooth on. I am using m3 and even 5ghz is below 1mbps for download with blutooth on. If u have sim version u should check from time to time.. It is slow extremely slow compared to other device using the same sim. I have given up. By the way my problem is only for download, upload tests are ok with wifi n sim.
I work away during the week and have been using my S9+ to hotspot to my laptop. I noticed when playing q game that there a significant lag that occurs about every 60 seconds or so. The issue does not occur on my work phone which is on the same network.
I have attached screenshots from my phone and my laptop of a continuous latency test. As you can see there is a large jump in latency every now and again on my laptop when connected to my hotspot, which is not evident when running the same test on my phone.
Has anyone experienced this on their phone and if so have you been able to fix it? Does anyone know how I could isolate the problem?
Cheers in advance

Sorry s9+ duo Exynos, only using one sim. For normal browsing it's not an issue as you wouldn't notice the lag as its literally a second or so. It's only noticeable when in a game when the game jumps/ the ping counter jumps drastically
Isn't it possible to Hotspot and Tether at the same time? I think I remember doing that. But I don't remember any latency issues.

Also the problem wasn't that the ping was always high (it was sitting around 50ms) but jumped to 1000ms every 60 seconds or so
Same problem..ping from 30ms go to 120ms and return 30ms..but always stay on 120
With samsung s7 i havent this problem!( with the Same sim network).
Hey there!
Ever since the official Android 10 update I'm experiencing interrupts in my wifi connection whenever I put my tablet away for a few minutes. I'd guess that's probably some new feature for battery saving, at least it's called "sleep mode" on my OnePlus 5T, but I haven't found anything similar on my tablet yet. The patch notes for the Android 10 update also don't mention anything wifi or battery related as far as I can tell....
It's not my wifi since my phone and my bf's phone all work as usual.
Any ideas or anyone experiencing the same issue? Already checked dev options in the settings, but couldn't see anything related. Maybe I missed some settings somewhere?

Yup! I did a couple of things though, so I don't really know which of them actually helped fixing the issue, or if it's even required to do all.
- I got 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wifi. They shared the same name, which made my tab switch between them often. I renamed both wifis so they don't share the exact same name (fun fact, they're now called Pizza 2.4 and Pizza 5). My tab is now only using the 5 GHz one, the 2.4 one now is only for devices that don't support 5 GHz (like my New Nintendo 3DS XL or my printer), because I live in an area where many people are, and the more wifi channels are occupied, the messier (and more prone to interferences) it gets. 5 GHz has a smaller range but is also stronger, which is perfect for my small flat. On 2.4 there's way more interferences because it has more range.
- In my router's settings, I've set the tablet's IP to static, because I've read somewhere that this might help.
Can't tell if both steps are required, you might just wanna try out one first if you don't necessarily want a static intern IP for example.
My tablet also used to take ages to find my wifi, which is now fixed for some reason. On my OnePlus 5T it still takes very long to find my 5 GHz wifi, although it also has a static IP. But both devices won't disconnect randomly anymore.
