Oculus link stops working randomly with cable

Every now and then I'm having this issue where I'm playing a random game like VRchat or Pavlov through quest link cable smoothly and then the image freezes on the headset even though the game is still running on the pc. To connect again I have to reconnect the cable to the headset and restart the oculus app, otherwise the headset won't let me connect to the pc again through the cable or Airlink. It sometimes happens after playing for 10 minutes and sometimes I can play for 2 hours without issues. I believe it isn't a performance issue, as I said the games run smoothly and suddenly the connection between the headset and pc stops working.

I am using a third party cable but this also happened through Airlink

Hello there! Seems this issue is coming from using Steam VR...This is not the experience the community should have with your VR devices. However, I was wondering if using VR chat through our Meta App works fine? If so this might be an issue with Steam VR only.
