[PC as hotspot for wireless streaming]

While currently having other problems with streaming over Wi-Fi. I can confirm that connecting to the hotspot(Wi-Fi 802.11ax) and establishing a connection to streaming hub in general works.
And the problems I have, are also there when I'm using my intermediary router (Which is only Wi-Fi 802.11ac), so I guess it should work, if streaming over Wi-Fi works in general for you.

May I can fully confirm this, once I will be able to resolve my problems with the help of VIVE support.

PC hotspot works okay most of time, but it sometimes adds the loading to your PC system.
So, we still recommand to get a decent router for wireless PC streaming. 

@Kevin chen, @Hextaku, @C.T.:

Thanks for the lively discussion. Can you please indicate whether only VIVE Streaming Hub + SteamVR are necessary, or I need to purchase Virtual Desktop? I am unable to see the desktop to connect to when I connect the Vive XR Elite to my PC's hotspot network (Windows Hotspot, AX200). My PC has wired ethernet. I'd really appreciate some detailed steps on trying out this connection.

I tried this setup (win 11 hotspot with wifi6e card intel ax210)

And it works, but performance is pretty low. The reason is that Windows hotspot with 20Mhz bandwidth on 5Ghz and that's a bit shit honestly. There is currently no way to change the channel width on windows hotspot 😞

Can you please explain how you set up the connection?

My PC is connected by ethernet to my wifi 5 router. If I connect the XR Elite to the router's wifi network, I can connect to my PC wirelessly and the PCVR streaming works through VIVE Streaming Hub + SteamVR.

My PC has a wifi 6 card, and I would like to use it as a hotspot to create a direct connection to the XR Elite for better bandwidth and without other traffic. In Windows 10, I can create a 'mobile hotspot' network and I can connect the XR Elite to this network. However, I can't see my PC from this network, and have no way of connecting to it wirelessly. I also don't see any setting in VIVE Streaming Hub about using such a hotspot network.

I know that the Oculus can connect directly to PC hotspots via Virtual Desktop: 

 

Is this possible with only VIVE Streaming Hub, or will it be possible? Otherwise, how can I do this with Virtual Desktop on the XR Elite?
