DonnovanBR  Try opting into Oculus desktop pc app public test channel (settings/beta tab).  This will take you to v39.  Works better for me with Link and Air Link with my Q2 on v38.  Cheers.

Ever since update v38 the tracking on all quests in my direct vicinity (personal and work) have big tracking issues. I can't walk around the office or my living room without the quest or quest 2 losing tracking. It seems it has to do with lighter vs darker areas (when I turn around for example) so far.

With v37 I could walk around the office without any problems and tracking in my living room was practically never lost (unless someone would turn off the lights).

I've seen more people running into very similar issues since update v38. I hope you are aware of these issues and can come up with a fix for it soon!

Cheers!
