Hey Javon,

I've linked the PC requirements to use Link with your device HERE. It'll outline the minimum and recommended requirements. Laptops are an even trickier subject as the Link cable is very picky about the laptops, but if you make sure it meets the requirements mentioned on the list then you should be golden.

Stop posting the link requirements, this helps NO ONE!

That's right. Wireless works, albeit quite poorly, with my router, but wired doesn't do anything. There is no developer section anywhere, and the device is not released anywhere in the Windows 10.

Hey there Jared7779! I wish there was more we could do to help out, but if the PC you're using does not meet the minimum requirements for Meta Quest Link/Air Link then there is no way we are able to properly troubleshoot the issue. If the PC in question isn't compatible based on the standards we linked then at that point finding workarounds is probably your best option. Charmeds made some great recommendations that may help out with this issue though so I recommend checking out his reply.

Feel free to reach out with simple questions! For any troubleshooting please make a post or reach out to our wonderful email, chat, and callback support team here: https://metaque.st/Support

tengo un problema similr, mi portatiñ tiene todo lo que necesita y mas para enlazarlo con las quest meta 3, pero sigue saliendo el mensaje, tu ordenador no cumple las especificaciones minimas actualizadas, lo que puede dar lugar a una experiencia de realidad virtual de baja calidad y luego veo que al conectar la quest con mi ordenador sale se requiere conexion USB 3, pero ya la tengo, entonces no se que sucede

The computer software itself has become quite corrupted. I have a problem with it quite often and only after reinstalling it does things get fixed. For some time now it has even claimed that the helmet has no power in its battery, and the battery was almost 100%. As soon as I reinstalled it stopped saying it. This is the only solution to the communication problems between the helmet and the computer that always works, but it is a matter of time before it breaks again.

I had no doubt that my PC passed spec for VR as I was replacing my Valve Index with the Quest3. I noticed my motherboard USB-C slot was supplying power but not passing the cable test. After trying a few cables, I suspected that the port didn't have enough power.
My Asus Z590 motherboard featured only one USB-C 3.2 port, an early version. I added a PCI-e USB-C 3.2 expansion card which immediately solved the issue.

The Purple Sky PCVR Link loading screen gets stuck/locked/frozen if you have used the Oculus Debug Tool and set the Encode Bitrate (Mbps) too high (I can use 940, but NOT 1000, my cable tests at 2.9Gbps)! To test, set it to 0 (auto), use the Service menu to Restart Oculus Service, wait 2 mins and try the link again. Note: Restarting the Oculus Service this way kicks you out of the Purple Sky PCVR Link loading screen.
