Learn from my mistake though, if you want to use an XBox 360 Wireless receiver with the Steam Link, make sure it's an official Microsoft one. You can tell because it says "Microsoft" on it, if it doesn't or says something else it's a knockoff that will probably be a bitch to get to work even on a PC and that will almost certainly not work with a Steam Link.

My $8 knockoff has worked with the Link with no issue thus far v:shobon:v

Okay, that's good I guess. Mine didn't work on my PC either so it may just have been a faulty unit. Good on Valve for supporting the third party knockoffs as well. Although there's no guarantee that all knockoffs will work I suppose.

at any rate, I went to Best Buy today in search of a new 360 controller with the better D-pad, and found them selling the original controller with the official dongle for less, so now I have a spare
