How to set up Remote Play on Nexus App and Remote Play App

| Answer ID: 20119
This article provides instructions on how to set up Remote Play on the Nexus App and the Remote Play App.

Important:

Remote Play can function over the Internet (not just your home Wi-Fi), provided your home network is properly configured. Make sure you comply with the following key requirements:

  • Your home router must support either UPnP or manual port forwarding, and both features must be enabled.
  • Your PC must remain powered on, connected to the internet with a public IP address, and signed in to the same Razer ID as your Nexus device.
  • Once the initial pairing is completed on the same network, your devices can connect over different networks, such as home Wi-Fi and mobile data, provided your network setup supports this functionality.

Before you get started, properly configure your PC as a host. See the answer below for more details.
