So when i connect my VR headset, and Steam says the Quest 3 headset is connectet, but i still can't launch games, and the SteamVR constantly says checking for Vive Basestations, even when i have removed the software?
This is not correct, Steam Link doesn't connect via a Router. The headset goes dead when you open a game after giving an error about being connected via a router.
@Nathie - The "Steam Link Passthrough" section doesn't talk about passthrough, it only talks about an easier way to get to the Quest menu by tapping the side of the headset
Great information. I'm new to VR and want to learn more about Stream Link. I'm confused about a separate router. Does it need to be wired direct to my lap top? Also, I use a Microsoft Surface Pro 8. Will that enable me to use a decent flight simulator with my Quest 3?. Thanks for reading and I'm sure I'll have more questions.
Hi im having an issue with my quest stream saying my router is wireless connected to my pc and that it isn’t supported does that mean i have to get a ethernet cable to hook to my router and pc to play it
after 5 hours I still cannot get any pcvr set up 😭 I’ve tried steam link, won’t connect my pc to router with a wire, quest link doesn’t connect with air link or cable, I legit give up
I recommend have it your pc charge full and the quest then u can start all of the downloading and work and upload u a game cause the oculus dies a lil quick 😅
Buy a real VR if you are looking to play pc games trough steam, there is no network connection requirement besides online games and they run steam natively. The quest 3 struggles hard maintaining battery even with the cable attached to pc, you will hardly notice any battery life beyond its capabilities. If you are only using this for simple games and VRdesktop to work or watch cinema, then this is for you, kids will play gorilla something and have fun, Its a childs toy compared to HTC vive and other good ones, will deliver mine back first thing tomorrow.
It didn't work man I tried everything I use my computer and the only thing I said is that my wireless something I don't remember but it says it's not working it's just keeps me in the loading screen for like hours
it would be so cool if it were that easy! But no, no i just have some non-descript bullshit issue that keeps the headset from properly connecting to steam. Fuck this shit
Hello, I need Hand tracks only use in UE and on PC Desktop, I connect to PC/Desktop no hand tracking, I need to enable to use in Unreal Engine, what should I do? Thanks
i can't get passed 03:27. My wifi drops every single time i get to this point. When i say the wifi drops, i mean it becomes completely unavailable for any device for a few minutes.
If I already have a game like blade and sorcery installed on meta store for pc and I connect using virtual desktop can I play it as if I am on pcvr or will it be nomad
Mine is saying on my pc that "a fatal error has occoured" and when i relaunch steam vr like it says to the same thing happens while my vr headset is saying "it is taking longer than usual to connect to host pc" @@nathie
when I try to connect it per steamlink it just shows a error message that says: the VRlink Driver encountered a fatal error ERROR: failed to create/reset encoder in videoamfenc:submitFrame() can someone help me with it?
Is there a way to trick the system to thinking youre on ethernet? My router is upstairs and would have to run a REALLY long cable...It's not letting me use steamlink without ethernet hooked up.
I need help!!!! Im trying to use non steam vr games i added into my steam library with steam link but when i open them to play it opens the game in a 2d screen floating in front of me. When i play a vr game i downloaded in steam it works right. Seems its the non steam vr game causing the issue. Any one else had this problem & know how to fix. Thanks
You can't go wired to STEAM LINK. It's wireless only. You can go to STEAM via OCULUS LINK, which is cabled. But you cannot attain a wired connection to STEAM LINK.
Hi Nathie, I currently have a laptop with a 3050 RTX, 16 gb of ram and a 12 gen intel i5 core. I also have a meta quest 3, and I was thinking of buying blade and sorcery. But I don’t know if my pc is capable of running it smoothly or if I should just buy the quest version (nomad). I have seen the recommended specs for the game on pc but I have seen that people say that laptop isnt good for pcvr. What do you say?
Im not sure if its something to do with my stuff or not but when I press the connect button it doesnt send me to the steam place on my headset it just closes steamlink entirely And idk what to do
@@TechFinn12 Oh really, that was blocking it was it? ..Crazy. What do you think of the Quest 3 then? Do you think it's clarity is good etc? I had the first oculas rift CV1 when it launched. Wondering if it would be a noticeable difference in resolution or is it still grainy?.
I've run into a small but gamebreaking issue: Steamlink and steamvr have been working flawlessly for months, but suddenly im now unable to play anything. For the first minute of booting up steamvr and hopping into a game, everything is perfectly stable, before suddenly everything starts breaking, with the in-headset display flashing the steamvr loading icon before just giving me and error message the my headset is not found, meanwhile the game on my pc is perfectly fine, with absolutely no errors. The only thing i could mention for why this happened is because i switched from a quest 2 to a quest 3, but i did go back in with the 2 and had the same issue. Sorry for the long comment, but it has caused me to essentially waste $100+ on games I can't play anymore.

Sad moment when you have no choice but to use wifi cuz your router is not in the same room and you have no ethernet cable to reach your PC.
would i be able to use steam link with a wired connection between my quest and PC. im using a guest wifi network so it wont let me pair my device.
It says your host pc is connect wirelessly to router which is not supported by steam and also says steam vr error
I followed a lot of tutorials and done everything but my vr never finds my pc. I can only play steam link on cable. any suggestions for how to fix ?
Have you fixed it

“Cannot stream to remote pc” it worked a couple months ago but not now😭
"All Quest headsets" is not true. It does not work with Quest 1.
Is there a way to trick the system to thinking youre on ethernet? My router is upstairs and would have to run a REALLY long cable...It's not letting me use steamlink without ethernet hooked up.
It shows me local network ?!? What’s I should do ?!
Can you use it with the link cable and bypass the meta link?
So I followed all the steps, but steam link still doesn't wanna show my pc. Shows my dad's pc, but not mine.
Nevermind, I got it to work for a grand total of... 5 SECONDS!! Before it said "Host is not responding" for absolutely no reason
so i dont need the link cable or Puppis S1 air link?
this was not helpful at all, i did everything still does not work
can you use your joystick connected to the PC running steam and use it in Quest VR games? Im thinking of Flight Sims where you need the Yoke etc ???
