My PC isn't showing up in Air Link

I just bought a quest 2 and want to connect to my pc using airlink but whenever I got to use air link on my headset my pc wont show up for me to pair it. Any help is appreciated.

    Everybody, just to let you know please stop replying to this post, and I found a solution and I am late sorry about this but you just go to firewall and add a program and browse and then go in your oculus folder and go in the support folder and then search through the folders and you will find ovrserver, don’t worry there is not that much folders, hope this helps you!

      I have the same problem. My PC stopped appearing for air link. OVRServer is not listed as an app in my firewall settings.

      Sorry for getting back to you guys so late. But I promise we didn't forget about you. OVRServer not being listed is interesting. I'll pass this along. Thanks guys

      I was able to solve this issue by changing my router's settings to completely delete the 5Ghz guest network. For some reason this allowed the Quest to air link over the non-guest 5Ghz network. I have no idea why, it really doesn't make any sense why this should affect anything, as the Quest was always connected to the non-guest network, not the guest network.

      Hi all.

      Still not working any of your solutions.

      Sometimes i can see my pc in the Oculus 2 list, sometimes not. When i see it and i try to pair, i receive an error with the text 'try to reconnect etc etc'. I can t connect Oculus from Windows to my Oculus headset. Impossible with Air Link.

      This is.. a waste of time and money.

      Hey not sure if you still need help but I encountered this issue today and fixed it just now. What worked for me was uninstalling the oculus pc app then reinstalling. Try that and see if it works

      Finally solved my airlink issue by exiting/disabling Valorant's anti-cheat system called Vanguard. I spent weeks trying to solve this, and as soon as I disable Vanguard, I was able to connect over airlink and link cable, and all my games worked.

       

      I eventually figured this out while trying to get Virtual Desktop working, it gave me an alert about Valorant upon startup, and sure enough that was the issue.

       

      For me I simply couldn't get Airlink to connect/pair.

      I can say that the new update does allow Meta to pass through fire wall. But I still struggle to use Air Link. I still need to do a full shut down, wait about 30 secs to a minute before starting back up again.

      Good to see the update helped in some aspects. Air link is dependent on a few things but I'd be happy to try some troubleshooting with you after you get your headset restarted.
