First thing I tried was Air Link but that was very flaky, kept dropping the connection and sometimes I couldn't get games to start (or stop). Then I tried Virtual Desktop and it just worked. I'd sort of forgotten about Air Link until I tried it again yesterday and it seemed much improved, or else my setup had. </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=42839.14&return_msg=42839.14" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="42839.14"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a42839_15"></a><div class="message" id="message_42839_15"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: koswix<span class="message_time">20 Jan 2022 15:19</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: ALL<span class="message_count">15 of 37</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42839.15">42839.15</a></div> <div class="message_body"> I've only tried Airlink so far.<br /> <br /> PC is on gigabit ethernet (spare room -> gigabit switch in attic -> gigabit LAN port on virgin hub)<br /> <br /> Virgin hub is in living room where I used the quest, and I have the quest connected on 5Ghz with maximum channel width etc set up on the Hub firmware.<br /> <br /> I did read somewhere that the VM hub flood detection stuff can kick in and start dropping packets for streaming, so I've turned that off but honestly can't remember if I've tried streaming again since I did or not.<br /> <br /> One thing that's proving a major headache with the Quest 2 is multiple users, though. The way they've/android've implemented it is utter dogshit. Seems only one account can have airlink setup at a time, meaning if someone else wants to play they need to re-pair the PC and headset which then knocks out the previous persons setup etc. Also no way to choose an account on the PC to log in as, it just goes to whatever user account has the app installed and is logged in. Wonder if Virtual Desktop will help with that? Not sure I want to shell out the money for it just yet though as it could well be my PC isn't good enough for what I'm asking of it. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Also noticed in Powerbeats VR, secondary users keep losing access to local files. It gets stuck in a loop of asking for permission and saying permission is required, then randomly will fix itself for a day or two before breaking again. <br /> </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=42839.15&return_msg=42839.14" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="42839.15"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a42839_16"></a><div class="message" id="message_42839_16"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: CHYRON (DSMITHHFX)<span class="message_time">20 Jan 2022 16:25</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: koswix <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 29 Jan 2022 13:52"></span></span> <span class="message_count">16 of 37</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42839.16">42839.16</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42839.14#a42839_15" target="_self">42839.15</a></div> <div class="message_body"> This is totally ready for primetime!</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=42839.16&return_msg=42839.14" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="42839.16"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><div class="message"> Message 42839.17 was deleted</div> <div class="message"> Message 42839.18 was deleted</div> <a name="a42839_19"></a><div class="message" id="message_42839_19"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Killamarshian (HAL9001)<span class="message_time"> 2 Sep 2022 06:21</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: koswix <span><span class="image post_unread" title="Unread Message"></span></span> <span class="message_count">19 of 37</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42839.19">42839.19</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42839.1">42839.1</a></div> <div class="message_body"> I actually watch 3D movies on my Quest 2 the most.
