      Same for me ... Oculus Link connection impossible on my Quest1 and barely usable (frequent disconnections) on my Quest2. Nothing changed except the upgrade (firmware and PC software), and everything worked as a charm before ...

        If any Link users that were struggling with V25/26 upgrade to V27 and have success, let us know. Early word seems to indicate our words have gone unheard. I will stick with V23 until positive feedback indicates these Link problems were fixed. Frustrating.

      Until the link issues are resolved, you can always use virtual desktop.

    Same questions as the top 3 posts ..

    And if they are not Known Issues you need new staff.

     

    EDIT

    I guess i could have said nothing but all of a sudden my Link is working perfectly so have to take back my comment .. Although still no update from V25 i can live with that 🙂

      I also have this problem, so what can be certain is the tragedy caused by this update?

    What about the stuttering in Home? 

    As always with Quest2, I have to wait 12 further days to receive this update to see on myself.

    Thank's Oculus.

      Finally someone with the same problem as me! Oculus Link has been stuttering nonstop for me in the last month.

    I was waiting for Oculus to fix the controller tracking latency issue since v25, then after updated to v27, controller tracking latency is increased. Now I can even see the latency by just waving controller in Beat Saber. 

    And the latency is not constant, it keep changing. Sometimes the latency is small enough, then the latency suddenly increase for few seconds. In Beat Saber, this means suddenly a lot of missing notes and failure. 

    I won't expect Oculus to fix this, but at least please don't make it worse and worse..

    Just saw that I got v27 on my Quest 2 sometime since last night. A few things I noticed:

     

    • They fixed the Apps menu so that it remembers your filters, instead of it always going back to Recent/All (which it has been doing since v25). Edit: It still reverts to Recent/All after a restart, but at least it remembers filter settings when switching away from and back to the Apps menu.
    • There is a new graphic for "No Notifications" after you clear out the Notifications tab (this is what I noticed first, and what prompted me to check my software version).
    • They seem to have fixed the problem that I've had with almost every update since the original Quest came out--my battery wasn't depleted after the update was installed. Usually a new update overnight means that my headset battery is fully drained when I go to use my Quest the next day (I think this was actually sorted out in v20, but I'm happy to see that it remains fixed).
    • They haven't fixed the stuttering that occurs when the Guardian is visible in the Home environment (which started happening with with v25).

    I haven't had any trouble with Link with any recent updates, but I'll test it again soon with this update.
