I keep getting a too many authentication attempts detected error when trying to sign in to...

Hello Manuela, the steam deck is the only device that I’ve used for cloud gaming and I am not using a vpn or anything similar on the steam deck. I’ve just tried going onto Xbox cloud gaming with the steam deck connected to a personal hotspot and I’m getting the same message and I set up cloud gaming using the article you have linked.

Thanks for the additional information, Dylan.

I appreciate the opportunity to let you know that at the moment, Cloud gaming is not fully supported on Steam deck as Microsoft stated in the article I shared. So this can be a downside at the moment of troubleshooting.

I encourage you to report this to the community contributors in charge of the Microsoft Edge port to Steam deck:

Hello Dylan, this is Manuela. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.

I’m sorry to hear you’re having some trouble when trying to use the cloud gaming feature on your Steam deck. Let’s try to sort this out.

However, before that, I would like to ask some questions:
Do you experience the same behavior when trying to use the cloud gaming feature on a different device like a PC or mobile phone?
Are you using a VPN or similar programs on your Steam deck?

May I know if you tried connecting your Steam deck to a different Wi-Fi network, like a mobile hotspot?

Additionally, would I know if you configured your Steam deck like advised in this article:

I dont even get to the credit card input part. For some reason, every time i do press that link your describing, i have to sign in. Then the tab keeps refreshing and it starts saying this

Thanks for your response. This is the message I've been getting (I have no idea why):
