quest2 cannot connect to my computer

In January 2023 I started using quest2 to connect to my computer. When connected, three dots will appear on the quest2 screen as it loads. After loading for a while, the screen goes black. I was trying to find a way to connect to the internet and I turned off the integrated graphics and then back on. I tried to connect to the computer using quest2, and it connected after a while. After updating the graphics card driver two days ago, I tried to connect to quest2 using the original method in a new place. I turned the integrated graphics off and on again. This time, after a while it still couldn't connect. I've tried various methods. Still unable to connect, I came to the forum to ask for help.

No worries @xiaobai114514, We're happy to help out! Sounds like you're making some progress, so that's great to hear. For your wired Link connection, are you using the cable that came with your Quest 2? It'd also help us and the other community members out with getting you properly set up, if you could share your system specifications with us. For reference, you should also check out our Link Compatibility page.

 

We would like the following:

  • Processor (CPU)
  • Graphics Card (GPU)
  • Windows Build & Version
  • Memory (RAM)

If you're getting frame-rate issues when running PCVR, be sure to tweak your in-game graphic settings, since PCVR tends to be pretty demanding. If you're getting stuttering/choppy-ness with your Air Link connection, we recommend checking out our Air Link best practices to make sure your setup is as optimal as it can be for the best performance! If your setup is different to our best practices, please let us know so we can delve more into it.

hi @xiaobai114514 

What specs are your machine?

You definitely want to disable your internal graphics to be sure you're on the right track.

What cable are you using?

It may be worth trying to connect using airlink, could narrow the issue down somewhat

Thank you very much for replying to me. My quest2 problem has been temporarily solved. Before that, I turned off the core display. I can connect to quest2 but the frame rate is very low. After I downloaded the original graphics card driver from the Acer official website, I can use Airlink to connect to quest2. The wired connection cable is USB3

Laptop, the connected cable is USB3, and airlink cannot be connected either.

My processor is AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics
My graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU
My system is Windows 10 Microsoft Windows version 22H2 (OS Build 19045.3693)
Memory is 16.0 GB

Hey again @xiaobai114514! Thanks for letting us know about your computer specs. I have a small request, could you kindly confirm the GPU on your laptop? Our compatibility list suggests that the 3050ti might not work well with Link or Air link, and we really hope that's not the case because we want you to have a great PC VR experience. Your cooperation is highly appreciated!
