MSI GF65 Thin oculus link cable not working

[Benjioli]

I just recieved the oculus link cable 7 hours ago but it hasn't done anything. Basically having an issue where my oculus link cable isn't connecting to my laptop? It will just charge the headset. Been messing with settings and graphics and yet no signal to my laptop. The cable matches the pc requirements so I am just guessing it has a problem to do with the ports, I have read a in a couple places that the ports on these laptops aren't DP but I am not too sure that is the reason for it. Any advice?has been stuck like this with no change :') restarting doesnt help with laptop or headset and also turned on developer mode.

At this point I'm going to look into the anker cable or look for an adapter.

I had the same problem, the fix for me being turning off air link in the pc oculus app, in which I had on previously. No clue why it affects it but it does.

Link (the usb cable) and Airlink (wifi) are alternatives. When air link is on, link is unavailable, and vice versa.
