I checked my device manager and I found:
Two adaptors were created and I assumed that it should be one. And, checked my network devices:
The Microsoft network device was not created for the D-Link air bridge.
I have googled D-Link air bridge related issues, and tried to unplugged/plugged bridge, and no help at all. I even uninstalled/installed Meta Quest link app and no help. I also even reinstalled Windows 11, no help[ neither.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.

Same problems here too....
We are not alone, Ive posted same on antoher Thread. Heres what I found out where I think its one of the reasons:
On the D-Link page the "End of support" for DWA-F18 since December 2024.
https://support.dlink.com/resource/PRODUCTS/DWA-F18/DWA-F18_END_OF_SUPPORT_NOTICE.pdf
https://support.dlink.com/ProductInfo.aspx?m=DWA-F18
But Ive got it to run on the Laptop with Windows 10...
Without VR-Bridge its not realy nice to play... It was an game changer. Who knows which rich people decided to cancle it or to make it less supported. This is the future in VR!

Same here,
i didn't manage to revive the Air Bridge, no matter what i tried. Reinstalling the Oculus sw, removing/updating/reinstalling Air Bridge driver, nothing helped.
i rolled back the Windows to 23H2 version and that fixed the issue instantly.
Since i updated from that version, in Settings/System/Recovery/Go back was an option.

Thanks for sharing.
My 24H2 can't go back 23H2 since there is no restore point for 23H2.
Beside this, do all 23H2 users have to stuck the version forever? I guess that Meta needs to provide the workaround solution for the long run.

Thank you for the fast respone and for me new idea.
Ive never heard about it. I only knew elaborate "2nd Router" Systems.
I will test it. Some videos seems told it seems to be a good work around. The "Steam Link" in combination could be the better solution against the D-Link.

Hi, Ive tested it and its good.
The setup is fast and not hard to understand. They have a lot of descriptions on the offical Website.
I can just recommend it. It works at some games better than the D-Link.
The games so far I have testetd:
Steam Link, installed on the Quest 3:
- The Light Brigade (Steam Link)
Sometimes it had short framerate drops with bad pixel screen, but its just for a moment and very rare. Maybe when someone is downloading at home.
- Blade & Socery (Steam Link)
I think not as good as the D-Link, but smooth and no problems. Maybe the picture is not sharp as the D-Link. Maybe I can do something in the settings but it was completly nice.
- Grimlord (Steam Link)
- Tactical Assault VR (Steam Link)
Meta Quest Link:
- Asgards Wrath (Meta Quest Link)
Heres interesting that the game was unplayabe for me with the D-Link, it was just stuttering even on low settings (at this time I had an RTX 3070 Ti), but with the Puppies it was smooth on Epic settings (Now it was an RTX 4070 Ti).
After all I think its an realy good addition for the Quest. The Price is more than fair and it works very well. I recommend it. I bought it over Amazon and after 2 Days its arrived.
Thank you for the tip "chilly.birdy"

@chilly.birdy @Eckrecht @FerencTarczal would the D-Link work if the meta link software was completely uninstalled and reinstalled in compatibility mode as windows 10 or 8?
