Quest 2 - Can only connect to browser

Supergoosh
Explorer

My Oculus Quest 2 is connected to my wifi and shows 192mps connection.  I can browse the internet through the Oculus browser.  However, it won't connect to anything else.  I have done a factory reset and done a power cycle.  I have accessed it through the Oculus app on my phone.  I selected a few games to download but it tells me that they are queued until the Oculus is connected to the internet.

My headset version is: 35444700575000000 

I don't know what else to do but the unit is currently useless to me as it stands.  Please let me know if there is anything I can do.

Yes, it says it is connected to my wifi, which has Internet, and it says that it has 192mbps upload and download speeds.  Yet, it won't connect to anything associated with the oculus servers.  I can browse the internet on it but nothing else.  It is being used about 10 feet from the router which has been reset with no change.

I have performed a factory reset.  Twice.  There is still no solution.  My internet connection is fine.  It just won't communicate with oculus servers.  Is there a way to manually update the firmware or something?  Is anyone actually reading what I type here?  I have followed your link to your "support page" and the only options listed to choose for a problem are "Audio or Speaker", "Button", "Display", "Headset Camera", and "Headset Charging or Power".  None of which are my problem so two clicks in and I am stuck.  An honest response would be appreciated.

I've been having the exact same problem recently where the internet, download speeds, and everything non oculus related works fine but my quest just doesnt communicate with any oculus servers whatsoever. I cant even play online games or look at the store because it says it cant connect with my account.

Ive tried factory resetting and it worked for about an hour, ive tried restarting and it did nothing.

The only information I can provide is I recently changed my birthday on my meta account

Hey there, @LaysRequiem. We know being able to connect to the Internet provides the best experience for using VR devices. We do have some questions for you.

 

  • When you check your Wifi connection, does it say "Limited"
  • Are you able to try a different Network and connect?

We're looking forward to hearing back from you on this so we can get you online and ready to go!
