SteamVR showing "Only works over local network" error when I boot it (Quest 3s)

     So I've been using SteamVR for PCVR with my Quest 3s for about 3 months now, and it's given me no trouble in that time. Today, however, when I turned on the Steam link app on the Quest, it gave me an error saying something along the lines of "Streaming VR only works over a local network", and it won't let me sync to my computer or let me play my games. I've restarted the modem, router, both my PC and my Quest many times, all to no avail. I saw another post on these forums talking about a similar issue, and I did what it told me to do by going into my router settings and changing the "dual banding" setting, just to find out it wasn't even an option. (I have a really old router and modem too, just to make things even more difficult) I even uninstalled and redownloaded both the SteamVR and Steamlink apps. I also tried Airlink, but it would not detect my PC on the popup. It was working fine yesterday, and I'm just surprised that it stopped working so abruptly. Is there anything I can do to fix this issue? Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated.
