I just ordered a link cable as i forgot that but not the official 80£ one. See if i can somehow bypass it going through PC. If not headset going back.

Is that the bit where you have to go to meta.com/device ?

Just had to do that on my second headset, just used my phone that's on the same WiFi. Could it be you've got some sort of VPN running? Maybe, even stupidly, could it be your pc is wired to the network and for some reason that's making it unhappy?

So, the app isn't seeing up the headset via bluetooth?

It keeps disconnecting. The new Oculus is on the app but the code will not pair it with it and cant get passed pairing bit on oculus it self.

Have you tried a factory reset of the headset. turn it on with the lower volume button pressed.

Yes loads of times but no luck even with the app uninstalled then installed at that point. I will wait until Thursaday as it turns out other people been having same problem and can sidestep it using cable seem to work.

Thanks anyway

This is a good quality cable for £20 when you apply the voucher.
I get 2.9Gbps when paired with a Quest Pro.

I know you have done all this, but can you try it again? Reset the headset and reinstall the phone app. Then setup a hotspot on the phone and connect your Quest 2 to it. Then try to pair the headset with the phone.

Take 2 as going to order the Pico4 128GB and you get 6 games free with it now but again mainly using it for steam. Hope i get better luck this time. At least Quest 2 has all been refunded.
