Vive Wireless Adapter: Official User Guides

[Maribel_Hearn]

I've noticed that the pass-through camera appears to be causing a crash with the wireless adapter.

With the pass-through camera enabled, my HMD will lose connection after a few minutes, and I will be given the "Headset not detected" error message along with full signal bars.

 

The only solution is to close and re-open the VIVE Wireless software. This, of course, results in the pass-through camera no longer working (Because the HMD was re-connected after SteamVR was started, and the pass-through camera has never worked after this happens, even on wired.) Once restarting the VIVE Wireless program, the connection is reliable with no pass-through camera. Disabling the pass-through camera in SteamVR settings appears to resolve the issue as well. This is far from ideal, and one of the best parts of VIVE is the pass through camera.

I am experiencing the same issue as others.  The vive wireless tool can see my headset, but steam VR cannot.  I have tried all of the steps mentioned here.

I found that disabling the camera resolves the issue for me as well.

I switch the cable between the wireless and the wired till the headset was tracking but had nothing on the headset (red light on the side of the Headset) so could not see anything, could here the game running (Fallout 4 VR)

Is it possible that the firmware did not update right?

I run Windows 7SP1, is it possible to get an update for this?

Same problem here: https://community.viveport.com/t5/Technical-Support/Wireless-Adapter-SteamVR-108-Headset-not-detected/m-p/23907/highlight/true?__woopraid=HGLP7Q82bQxQ#M9200

Getting this. The wireless linkbox coax is defintely screwed in. The WiGig card is installed and looks like any normal device in device-manager. Any ideas?

Edit: I also moved the WiGig card to another slot just to be sure.

I have noticed since installing the wireless adapter that my base stations and my controllers will not wake up when I start SteamVR. Does anyone else have this problem or have a solution?
