Yes, with client steering enabled.

Hi @C.T. - worked out that the headset was connecting to an AP elsewhere and not reattaching to the AP in the play area. I appreciate that for day-to-day usage this wouldn't be a problem, but surely the signal threshold for reattaching to a closer AP should be much higher when using Vive Streaming? I'll see if I can replicate and send a trace.

Finding performance on VIVE streaming to be far worse than before this update. I could generally run VIVE Streaming on full 200Mbps with Dynamic bitrate disabled. Now I have to either have it enabled or drop the bitrate down to around 100Mbps before I get a consistent experience. Definitely a step back from my point of view. Happy to generate a trace if you need it

You don't need to manually launch SteamVR from the headset. I can see that you've selected "PC - Installed" on the headset launcher. You just need to launch the VR app or game from the page you are on (such as The Room VR). If you wanted to go into SteamVR Home, then launch any PC VR application and exit it. You will automatically be taken to SteamVR Home.

@ChrisMa130 Have you raised this with Vive support? This forum isn't an official support channel. You can also generate a support trace from within the Vive Streaming Hub.

Had similar issues myself. Not whether the WiFi antenna is smaller than in the Focus 3 (or in a worse location), but there is definitely a difference. I ended up having to move an AP closer to the play area to overcome the issues.

Hi there. They should automatically appear in the Library area. If they don't appear, then giving the headset a reboot after you had installed the apk's should sort it.

How bizarre. Not seeing this problem on my gasket. I assume you are meaning this bit?

Hi there. Have you tried testing with another power supply? It might not be providing a constant supply that the Flow needs.

Received mine this morning. Very easy to fit and works as expected. It's great to be able to wear my glasses with the headset too, and it is much better to use (than the standard face gasket) in hotter weather. Great addition to the headset!

The VIVE MR Gasket is available from the Accessories section of the Vive website (EU/UK) - not sure about other regions.

There can be many reasons for this. I have very few issues with streaming on my setup. 1) What speed is the LAN card running at? It needs to be at least 1Gb. 2) What frequency of WiFi is the headset connected to? It needs to be at least 5 GHz. 3) What is the Vive Streaming Hub reporting when you get the Vive loading animation? It's probably best to use the "Report an issue" option in Vive Streaming and this will raise a case with Vive support with the streaming logs.

@C.T. Are there any plans to enable this to be switched off?

Trying to work out what you mean? Where is the hard wire? The face gasket definitely isn't as comfortable as the Focus 3, but I can easily wear it for extended periods of time without discomfort.

I'd be interested in this too @C.T.?
